Android app does not maintain state

[duckbrain]

When you leave the app, the web view reverts to the default page. This occurs with switching between apps or rotating the screen.

I bet it has something to do that gowebview doesn't save/restore application state https://github.com/microo8/gowebview/blob/master/strings.go in onresume it just go to the home again.
I will try to check.

BTW I would strongly suggest to add instructions in the readme on how to generate/update the android app, cause it's not really straight forward.

I don't know how I missed this for a year, but yes. I've experienced something like this before with another app, where creating/destroying the activity caused the webview to be created/destroyed and bring it back to the default.

I really can't remember how I did it, and I was never able to reproduce it. I would probably have better luck starting my own Android project and build, etc. by hand. I just don't want to do that badly enough. I remember spending a couple of days to get the gowebview project to generate my Android project.
