Hello. I’m trying to use Metagrid Pro on my iPad Pro. My usual workflow is alternating between two main apps: TotalMix FX Remote (RME interface’s mixer app) and Metagrid Pro. I would like to jump between the two apps, having only one iPad, to use both of them. When I am on RME app for a minute or less, the app Metagrid keeps disconnecting when in background. I receive notification from MetaServer saying that the device disconnects. Is there a way to keep Metagrid or MetaServer active in background?

Operating System (OS version): Windows 11 25H2 build 26200.9168
Thank you for reporting this. We have completed the investigation and identified
the foreground-recovery problem responsible for the disconnection.
When MetaGrid Pro remains in the background, iPadOS eventually suspends it and
heartbeat traffic stops. MetaServer can then retire the inactive session. When
MetaGrid Pro returns to the foreground, it can still retain the previous cached
connection state instead of completing a fresh connection automatically.
The correction has been scheduled for MetaGrid Pro 1.7.7. It will reconcile the
connection when the app returns from the background, restore the saved session
automatically when possible, and preserve the selected connection type rather
than unexpectedly switching between USB and Wi-Fi.
MetaGrid Pro 1.7.7 is a focused hot fix and will be available very soon. Thank
you again for bringing this workflow to our attention.
