Background, notifications and tablets

Task persistence depends on the target computer. How long the App stays connected in the background depends on the mobile OS and preferences. Diagnose these separately.

Background connectivity

Settings include a background connection preference. Power saving, memory pressure and network changes may still suspend the App; the setting is not a permanent-online guarantee.

On return, check connection status and reopen the existing terminal before creating another task.

Notifications

Terminal notifications require both App settings and OS permission. Verify behavior with a recognizable test task on your device. Notifications are not the sole source of truth; inspect task state, exit code or artifacts.

Separate background connection, notification permission and App/system splits.

Capture instructions · app-background

Capture background/notification settings and the App’s own Split below view on a tablet.

Tablet layouts

Split below provides in-app workspace splitting. Combine multiple areas and a hardware keyboard for longer sessions. Two views of the same terminal still operate one process.

Check conflicts among OS shortcuts, App input and remote program bindings using the input guide.

Before leaving

For builds, tests and services, confirm the task exists on the target daemon and record its name. Save results to explicit paths. Reopen by name when returning, and end the process only when you intend to stop it.
