Epix Pro Gen 2: CIQ apps and recently used apps does not work

On my Epix Pro Gen 2, a long press on the back button opens a list of recently used apps. When doing that from an CIQ app, and then selecting the CIQ app again, I get the following error:

Please check this thread for the photos, I was not able to upload them here, even after minifying them:

This happens for all three CIQ apps I have installed (Weather Underground, myHomeControl and my own evcc).

Software version is 20.22.

    Launching ciq app when another is running is not allowed on older devices that don't support multitasking, f7, fr965 etc.

    However in case of self relaunch, we should improve the experience in several ways. 

    1. Pop to app if it's visible (top of page stack).
    2. If not, show better error message, e.g app is already running.

    This will be addressed in future firmware update.

    It's a known issue that images can't be posted in the OP of a bug report. You can post them in the comments though.

    Another workaround would be to post links to image provider such as postimages.org, imgbb.org or imgur.com
