Pressing 'Play' will just render the play button with the animation of being pressed and will just stall there until I forceclose the game and then restart it. Happens all of the time until the game is wiped. (refer to MCPE-7089)

Does this issue still affect the current version of Minecraft PE? If so, please update the "Affected Version/s" option to reflect this.
By "wiped" do you mean closed from multitasking, or deleted?
