- Tap on the Launch blaze button within the blaze overlay
- Start navigating through the webview flow
- Navigate out of the app to device settings
- Switch the theme Light Mode to DarkMode or DarkMode to LightMode
- Switch back the JP app

Research direction
Start by reproducing the listed theme-change steps through the Blaze Overlay and webview flow, then trace how the flow state is restored when the app returns from device settings. Done means switching between Light Mode and Dark Mode no longer returns the user to the Blaze Overlay and instead preserves the current webview step.
