Abstract
Examples associated with inactive application restarting are described. One example method includes establishing a connection between a host device and a remote device. The connection is used for communications between the host device and an application on the remote device. An inactive state of the application is detected on the remote device. A message is transmitted to the remote device to notify a user to restart the application. A user interaction with the message restarts the application.
