If u want to maintain the context of app then

  1. Minimize it …

  2. Perform u r task …

  3. Maximize it …

     // Press Home Key
 	_driver.pressKeyCode(AndroidKeyCode.HOME);
 	
 	// KEYCODE_APP_SWITCH
 	_driver.pressKeyCode(0x000000bb);
 	_driver.findElementByAccessibilityId("app1Name");
 	// Tap our first app
 	List<WebElement> elem = _driver.findElements(By.className("android.widget.FrameLayout"));
 	
 	for (int i=0;i<elem.size()-1;i++){
 		System.out.println("elem.get(i).getAttribute(name) :: " + elem.get(i).getAttribute("name")) ;
 		if (elem.get(i).getAttribute("name").equals("WizIQ")){
 			System.out.println("Tapping :: " + elem.get(i).getAttribute("name")) ;
 			_driver.tap(1, elem.get(i), 100);
 			break;
 		}

actually its tricky way to do this. Just like human interaction. by pressing home key actually puts ur app into background. so in later stage to resume this app, you press on application tab and select app. You can do the same things using press key events.
