Error description

  • On previous versions of Android (tested on 2.3.5),
    the only alternative is to touch "Exit Application",
    which quits the current application.
    On Android 4.1.2 it is possible to touch "away" from the dialog
    (any background area behind the dialog) and that will dismiss
    the dialog without quitting the application.
