Hello,

I am looking for a way to make Osmand+ stay in foreground when an incoming call triggers the telephone app and makes it pop up taking the whole screen. This is a bit of a nuisance, because when you're driving you will loose the navigation when a call comes in.

I don't need the call to be announced full screen, I don't need to touch the phone to take the call, I can pick it up remotely with buttons on the steering wheel. But what I do really need is to be able to keep seeing where I am and where to go on the next crossing. Loosing this optical information just because a call is coming in, can lead to serious trouble!

That's more a function of your phone than OsmAnd. What kind of phone do you have? Android has a setting (somewhere) that displays a minimal popup window for incoming calls that doesn't take up the whole screen, and is easy to dismiss.
