Android / Raspberry request - shortcut to Exit the app

Hi Brent,

Would you consider to add a shortcut to exit the app, like a double "back" button click, and/or double "escape" key when using keyboard?

It would help me in the Raspberry install, so I could exit the app to change settings when the app is starting automatically and mouse cursor is turned off.

Hi,

You can currently exit the app by pressing the hamburger menu at the top, and selecting 'exit'. Would that work?

alternatively, if the app is running from the command line, a "Ctrl-C" issued from the keyboard should exit it as well.

Ok, I was thinking about situations where I can't reach the menu, like no touchscreen or mouse cursor. In raspbian, the CTRL+C works well when the app is started from run_racecapture.sh, but not as good when it is started from boot_racecapture.sh, as the screen freezes. I can type "kill -9 -1" after screen freezes to kill it, though, and it works. So I can handle it, but the shortcut would be easier
