Switching apps during Assistant query causes "Something went wrong" error and broken retry

I am using the kagi android app version 1.0.37 and when submitting a query to the new assistant UI and switch to a different app, when I return I get this error screen: Oops! Something went wrong! Please check your internet connection" with a button to retry. Clicking the retry button will show a JSON request of the chat.

This issue appeared after updating to the new Assistant UI. The error does not occur on the Kagi mobile website.

When returning to the app after switching to another app, the assistant should either:

Continue displaying the response if it had already completed loading, or
Resume or gracefully recover the request if it was still in progress without showing an error screen.

The retry button should also refresh the chat, rather than displaying a raw JSON response.

Having the same issue, it happens almost every time when switching to another app and back to the android kagi app. This means ₄ times in a 10minute session, making the experience very frustrating.

For me it mostly happens when using news or small web. But I think every section is affected by it.
In some cases (small web mainly), the error keeps persisting and I have to force close the app before it starts working again.
