   Per my comment above, this actually was a problem with how we were creating the cookies server-side. They were being created as session cookes (without an expiration date), so would expire as soon as the app was closed because each instance of the app creates a separate inappbrowser instance. By setting an explicit expiration date on the cookie returned by the server this causes the browser to treat it as persistent, rather than for just a single session, and it's there for subsequent instances of the app. In our case we have no need for the cookie to ever expire so we're setting it to have a 12/31/9999 expiration when returned in the response from the server.
