This is because the app is sometimes killed in low-memory condition.

One of my plan was that before killing the app, we would save the URL of the frame, so that we could "reuse" it when the user would launch the app again. I don't know if that's doable or even desirable.

It sounds crazy to me. It seems like the sms app has only one message. How many contacts contains the contacts app? If this is only 1, I think we need to understand why the app is killed in background.

This is something that we may do with Haida. If the app is killed, it will still be in your sheets history. If the app has unique urls then this url will be reloaded, or if the app has only one window but store some state in the url, then this url will be reloaded as well.

So sounds like Haida will help here, but the first issue imo is why is the contacts app killed in background, so why is there an OOM here.
