unwanted games starting on mobile

if you finish a game and then hit the 'back' button on your phone because you want to go back to the home screen, the app will sometimes (seems random) find and start a new game. i know there is a button at the top of the screen for the menu, but sometimes it is almost instinctive to hit the back button as almost all apps work this way? then i feel like a jerk for aborting a game, or i play a game I dont really want and blunder it.

And so the town waits to see if little Timmy can make the adjustment to the difference between "almost all apps" and "all apps."

Can he play a game that requires mastering tens of thousands of such intricacies?

Definitely a bug. Happens to me and get blacklisted. Waiting for response from support...

did your problem get corrected? I found the problem happens when I run game analysis on my phone then hit the back button instinctively to get out of analysis mode- it automatically starts a new game.

I've been having this bug too.  Not sure what's going on.

For me, it's not even the back button. Several times I've just opened the app on my tablet, not clicked anything, and looked at the screen only to find a 3-minute game is about to start. It's weird.

It did it again today - just started a three-minute game when I picked up the tablet. (My apologies to the opponent, I aborted because I don't want to play a three-minute game.)

Update: this seems to be fixed in the latest app version. Now there is a confirmation popup before the game starts. Thank you to the developers who implemented this!
