MRA-App jumps into the background

On a 3-day tour in Thuringia last week, it happened to me several times that the MRA navigation jumped to the background for no apparent reason, i.e. suddenly only the start screen was visible. The navigation including voice instructions continued, but the screen display was gone and had to be brought back using the navigation buttons on the smartphone.
Is this a known problem?
This has never happened to me with other navigation apps (TomTom GoRide, Waze, TomTomGo, Kurviger). I therefore think a smartphone problem is rather unlikely.
I am using a relatively new Gigaset GX4 with Android 12.

Before I send the smartphone for a repair check, I wanted to ask here in the forum whether this error has already occurred? -

Like a drop of water hit the screen or the phone holder caused a reaction. I suggest cleaning the screen and perhaps reducing the screen sensitivity in the phone settings if it continues to happen.

wrote on 13 May 2024, 06:22 last edited by@RetiredWingMan Thank you for your help. It wasn't raining during my tour, so there wasn't a drop of rain on the display. The display has a screen protector, anti-reflective and anti-fingerprint. That's why the screen sensitivity is set to high and is in "glove mode". If this is the cause of the error, which doesn't sound implausible at first, I wonder why the error didn't occur with other navigation apps? Specifically, I tried TomTom GoRide and Waze during the tour.
