    Time-Out Problem on Certain Android smodel phones:

    Some devices have power-saving controls that suggests certain apps should be “put to sleep” and this can cause this app (and others) to inconveniently time-out. 

    Here’s the fix:

    1-Go to Settings.  Go to “Device Maintenance” or “Digital Wellbeing & Parental Controls” or similar setting that sets screen time or app timers.

    2-Select “Battery” or “App Limits”

    3-Select “Unmonitored Apps” .  You will see a list of apps that can use as much power as they want.  Or find your Station’s App and open the Timer symbol.

    4-Adjut the time-out setting for your Station App to be as long as you wish.  It’s possible that your mobile device has a default setting of 30 minutes or similar.  This can be increased to hours in length.

    5-Close this up, and your app will operate according to the custom setting you have applied.
