Description

Sometimes I’d like to use SimRa and a navigation app at the same time, but SimRa doesn’t handle Android’s split screen function well. When I start recording and enable splitscreen afterwards, SimRa offers me to start recording again (resizing the apps in splitscreen mode has a similar effect). However, when I start recording for the second time and stop it later, the recording seems to also include the first part which seemed to be lost (though I’m not entirely sure about this).

My phone also offers running apps in a popup, I haven’t tried that yet, but possibly this would have similar issues due to resizing.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing recording with Android split screen and app resizing, then trace the recording behavior around those changes. Done means resizing does not show a false second-start prompt and the resulting recording has the expected continuous content.
