No worries, I hope that using android:launchMode="singleTask" solves the problem of your application.

I agree with you. The status bar should stay translucent. I will investigate this problem, but it might take some time. I have just started to contribute to this project on my spare time.

If you have the time to debug it, this code is a good place to start.

And it doesn’t look like a critical bug, given that most of the people are probably using android:launchMode="singleTask" with deep linking.
