In short: Don't worry.

A bit longer: Android manages the apps' states.
The user keeps on doing things, launching tasks, firing intents etc. and
when Android OS doesn't have enough memory left it kills of apps that are in
memory, but don't seem that important anymore, e.g. because the UI is not
visible anymore as the user navigated back to the home screen or to another
app/activity. If you app is needed again Android OS will resurrect you
app/activity. Just implement the proper call backs
(onCreate/onResume/onPause etc.) and your good to go.
