I have the same setup with Firefox and Bitwarden without issue. Do you happen to have Firefox setup for restricted battery usage? Android can be quite aggressive with that.
That, or a phone without much ram. I very often had similar issues on my previous phone when background apps instantly got killed due to memory constrains
Got 6GB and never have issues with other apps. Brave and Chrome are fine.
Thanks, no haven't set up battery restrictions. Have disabled Miui default battery saver, set to no restrictions, still same issue. It happens only when I go to my vault.
Sounds to me it is MIUI that kills a lot of stuff for me all the time, I also don't know how to prevent it.
One way I do is start that other app first, than open needed tab in Firefox and do quick switch between apps. In that way FF is not reloading page, not Bitwarden but might be similar.
It looks like a bug in Firefox, happens on many highend devices as well. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1807364
