"still having trouble turns out even when I exit application i see the ifly app is still running in the background "
Not sure how you're checking to see if an app is running in the background. If you're using the button at the bottom of most devices that lets you switch between "currently-running" apps, that's not really a list of "currently-running" apps--it's a list of all recently accessed apps, whether they're still running or not.
You can tell whether iFly is *really* running or not by what happens when you select it from that list. If it immediately pops up and shows you a moving map, then it was, indeed, running in the background. If instead if pops up a black screen with the iFly logo and sits there for a few seconds before showing you the moving map, then it wasn't running, and is going through the launch sequence again.
