What's Wrong?

Using the iOS app on iPhone 11 to control a session that started on MacBook shows only first few pages of interactions, then after app sent to background and back to use, app shows thinking with animated flower indefinitely.

Only the MacBook console screen shows progress and allows control. App then gets unstuck and gets stuck again

What Should Happen?

Interactions show continue ask questions and show responses and work as of the app was never sent to backgrounds
