Wallet Connect – Connection dialog don't appear after MetaMask is in background for sometime ( timeout ) - 5.6.1

[jayvs6341]

Describe the bug

I am working on android application to connect with MetaMask using WalletConnect protocol.
The connection works fine normally. But, if the MetaMask resided in background for some time, and then we again try to connect, it don't show the dialog prompt for the connection.

I think, MetaMask has some issue with the timeout duration.

Once this happens, MetaMask don't accept connections unless we remove it from recent.

This issue happens from the very beginning versions of MetaMask, I mainly focused on the latest version ( 5.6.1 ).

Launching metamask sometimes take less than 10 sec and sometimes take more than 20 sec.

To Reproduce

Open MetaMask through connection protocol.It cannot connect first 2 times. Need to remove MetaMask app from RECENT and connect again.

Expected behaviour

It should accept the connection even though it's in background for sometime. Because, to open MetaMask after removing it from recent takes some time to load MetaMask.

Hey @jayvs6341, thanks for reporting.

Could you elaborate and send us the recording again (it's unavailable)?

If you connect to the MetaMask via wallet connect and the app goes to the background for a while that will not kill the connection session.

We still couldn't begin to work on this issue, thank you for your understanding!

Sure, I will share the link again.

@tommasini

They latest build looks good.

Only issue I see is, first time it take almost 15 seconds to open the metamask.

Can we do something for it ?

[tommasini]

We are working towards making the opening faster, you can follow the progress on this ticket

Thanks, @jayvs6341, I will close this issue, since this last version solved this issue for you, if it happens again or you detect something else, we appreciate your support!
