Haha, I used to find it frustrating that when refreshing it didn't automatically scroll to the top, or so it seemed.
Perhaps an auto.or adjustable setting to prompt a refresh after the app is reopened after a certain time would be good. I always prefer the option to be there and require action rather than automatic or a pop up with a choice that requires an action.
So,if I want to continue I can, but a prompt is there if I don't.
