Android disconnects instantly after tabbing out (since Winter Update)

I mainly play PRO on Android (tablet), and since the Winter Update this has become extremely annoying.

Before the update, you had roughly ~30 seconds before getting disconnected when tabbing out of the game. That was totally fine.

Now, the moment I leave the app (for example to quickly answer a WhatsApp message or when I get a call), I get disconnected instantly.

This is especially frustrating during battles. If you tab out for even a second, you’re disconnected and can straight up lose the fight. That feels really bad and is completely out of the player’s control sometimes.

I understand the intention behind preventing AFK behavior, but on PC you can stay logged in for a very long time, even while the game is running in the background. Compared to that, the Android behavior feels extremely strict and punishing.

It would be great if the old grace period could be brought back on Android, even if it’s just 20–30 seconds. That alone would already fix most of the problem and make mobile play much more enjoyable again.

Right now, playing on Android feels risky because any short interruption can instantly lead to a disconnect and a loss.
