This is an oft-requested feature that will be very much appreciated by users. :) It looks like our multi-platform compile checks failed due to the changes to location_driver.c. Perhaps you could wrap them in an 'android' ifdef? |

Description
When RetroArch Android is closed by swiping up in Android task switcher, or automatically by the background task killer all progress in RetroArch is lost
Expected behavior
There should be an option (or always on) that flush in memory states to disk on activity onStop()
Flush SRAM to disk
If auto save state is on, make a save state
Flush auto save state to disk
Looking at uwp/uwp_main.cpp App::OnSuspending it seems like similar behavior was implemented for UWP, but not Android
Related Issues
