does not close android app by pressing back button #63

I get the feeling this is due to the fact that on the MainActivity, 

startActivity(intent);

Is blocking access to the startupscreen (with the logo) because it will constantly try to forward into the Services list. Commenting that line (MainActivity.java line:105) will stop this behaviour and will let you exit the application again by pressing the back button.

//startActivity(intent);

This does however mean that a user always needs to click the logo page to get to the services list.

Would that be acceptable?

Maybe the logo splash screen is not needed.

We were wanting to show the user what city they are currently reporting to. Although, I really don't know how much of a use case that is. I think most versions of this app get recompiled as a single-city version.

I agree, but currently a gracefull exit of the application is broken. So my question would be, will users be annoyed when they have to click the splash to get into the services list? It is hard for me to tell as I am currently only developing without any real users.
