SUMMARY
The android app does not reconnect with the computer on its own after
reconnecting to the wifi network.
It doesn't matter if the app is open, the notification and the app screen both
show no connections.
Closing the app and opening it again does reconnect.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Turn off phone wifi
2. Turn on phone wifi
OBSERVED RESULT
Not connected to any device
EXPECTED RESULT
Connected to computer
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

macOS: n/a
Linux/KDE Plasma: n/a
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: n/a
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0
Qt Version: 5.15.9
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have reinstalled the app.
logcat shows this suspicious message:
05-21 13:28:09.840 967 1032 W BroadcastQueue: Background execution not
allowed: receiving Intent { act=android.net.wifi.WIFI_STATE_CHANGED
flg=0x4000010 (has extras) } to
org.kde.kdeconnect_tp/org.kde.kdeconnect.KdeConnectBroadcastReceiver
This behaviour is relatively recent, it used to work fine. Looking through
other bug reports led me to this merge request
https://invent.kde.org/network/kdeconnect-android/-/commit/fd34e56675dd7e982e22abb051400804ab5ede67
which could fit into the time frame.
I downloaded the latest version before this, 1.20.2, from APKMirror and could
not reproduce, that version reconnects fine.
