Notification from app when the app is closed

Another example about Itoo with classic BT and ESP32 (full-duplex, with watchdog and automatic restart)

Dear all, though this is not a completely new topic, I believe that it could be of some help, anyway, for those who need a step-by-step explanaition about the creation of an app capable of using the power of Itoo to run in background to manage a fast BT ful duplex communication. Moreover it shows how to restore the background communication after a failure. Tips and tricks to make it working are also described in the texts between the pictures.

Also look into the itoo thread for general background processing
