Switching to native Hue-app

How come that the chosen scenery in the app is still lingering on when I switch over and use the native Hue-app to change light? For example, If I like to switch to something else, the last scene I use is still there and affect everything I change to in the native app. Don´t you guys try the app on at least some of the newer Iphones so you can detect different issues?
There is a lots of small annoyances everywhere.
Overall its a nice app bit way to many issues.
Mostly this problem solves itself, kind of, but not sure in what way.
I use the off-switch and light turns off, so far so good but when I switch on lights with the native app, its still (mostly) the scen from this app that´s still there.
Its like some sort of cache-issue if you can relate to that?

Thanks

Lighter streams animations from the phone to the bridge. This means that if an animation is running in Lighter and you want to switch things in another app, you first have to stop the animation in Lighter.

Unfortunately, due to Lighter's animation complexity, they can't be run on the bridge.

For the record it´s working “as it should” in my iPad Pro for some reason.

Also tried to delete the app in the iPhone 11 Pro and then using the native app but the light was still flickering from the last scene in the Lighter app. Very strange.
