Thanks for the report here. I'm very sorry but without any relevant code or logs or anything it will be impossible to determine if this is a potential bug in .NET MAUI or something in your codebase.

I have updated the post and attached the appdelegate code file , I really don't know from where I begin.
AppDelegate.txt

Hi,
i have the same issue. My AppDelegate has no special code. I cannot get any logs. Debugger disconnects before anything can be traced. Any ideas how to trace this bug?

Hi,
I have the same issue. When the app is in the background it crashes and restarts and does not get any exceptions or logs.

Hi we have the same issue. It constantly occurs. It seems relatively new. We've been trying to convert from xamarin 5 thru several net mauireleases.

This is likely a net Maui 8 issue.

This needs a an urgent high priority fix. Crashing in background makes it undeployable or and at minimum a very pooR Zux

I'd suggest removing api keys from the file at least. If needed consider sending the details to jsuarez/others privately. @alaa3latol

Seeing the same issue here. The problem started occurring once I've implemented the OnActivated method in AppDelegate. Even if there is no code in it, I get the exception "System.InvalidOperationException: 'Window was already deactivated' when sending the app to background by clicking on the iOS emulator home button.

I can reproduce it as follows (MAUI .net8, VS 17.9.6)

        [Foundation.Export("applicationDidBecomeActive:")]
        public override void OnActivated(UIKit.UIApplication application)
        {
            ;
        }

The stacktrace looks like this:

0xD in xxxxxx.Program.Main at D:\src\rlmc\xxxxx\Platforms\iOS\Program.cs:13,13
	at D:\src\rlmc\xxxxx\Platforms\iOS\Program.cs(13)

Program.cs wasn't modified from the auto-generated code. Commenting out the OnActivated() method makes the crash go away.

Update: Ignore my previous comment. If I add the line "base.OnActivated(application);" to the OnActivated() method shown above, the app won't crash when sending to background.
