**Description of problem, include YAML if issue is related to notifications:**
I work with homeassistant mainly with the companion app on my 2 Samsung tablets S9FE and S10FE and also do the programming of automations/scripts. Since 2-3 months back I detect the following annoying problem: Not always, but sometimes when homeassistant sends a popup window to confirm something ( "Are you sure..." ) or to configure for example a sensor after entering the data and clicking on next/proceed... the pop up does not disappear as it would normally but stays on the screen and I cannot do anyting - the app accepts no more input. I have noticed this behaviour on different menus ( changing sensor info, confirmation screens, shortly everywhere where a popup screen can appear ).
After the hang I have to kill the app and restart it. I didn't mind very much, because I could continue after 4 fast clicks and it the problem appeared only 1 - 5 times a day, but yesterday I was in the middle of programming a large variables yaml code and the work of half an hour was lost.
**Companion App Logs:**
Are there any logs if I kill the app and restart it ? I was so annoyed I did not look for logs.
