MCPE-41934Player spawned at wrong location when reloading the world
Three times in the last day or two with 1.9.0, I have resumed playing only to find myself disoriented because I spawned at the wrong location. Unlike most of what I see in the summary of MCPE-38374 or after a cursory read of the comments, I did not spawn high in the sky and fall to my death. I am not sure if this is a duplicate or a different but similar bug; maybe it's the same but only death from falling is enough to motivate reports.
In one case, I spawned on the ground, a few blocks above where I was when I saved. I think it was the same X and Z. I was in a 3 or 4 block-high space and was either next to or standing on a bed.
In another case, I spawned near where I saved, but a few blocks both above and offset from the Z axis and maybe X axis, in a game-generated cave. I think this was just a 3 block-high tunnel, although it might have been only 2.
In all of the recent cases I have resumed with my feet on a block, as if the location where I saved was invalid so the game sought to restore me at the nearest "safe" location by moving diagonally. (I recall that there was a bug where attempting to restore after saving in a 2-block high space would result in ones head being caught in the block above; I think this was due to the addition of the animation of the player "dropping in" upon restore. I can imagine that this safe relocation was added to compensate.)
I am fairly certain that I have seen this occasionally with different worlds on older versions, back when it was still called MCPE; I recall tunneling and laying tracks just below the surface, only to find myself upon resumption standing on the ground (and no doubt at night with creepers and zombies heading towards me).
In all cases, these were offline, infinite world types; my most recent was is from at least Jul/Aug 2018. (Local) multiplayer was active on the most recent incidents.
I have also seen MCPE-38374, spawning in the sky and falling to my death, once, in either Nov or Dec.
My save habits, alas, are not disciplined like some in the comments of MCPE-38374; playing mobile I often have to quickly end playing and save wherever I am; it is not uncommon for me to abruptly stop, without going to pause->save->exit-I might get a call, try to switch briefly to another app, bump the power button, etc.

Spawned into a saved game at a different location than where I had left.
I was at bedrock upon save; ~Y=-61. I am not certain (didn't record coordinates) but it seems that I spawned at the same X/Z coordinates in a cave directly above where I had saved, ~Y=-23.
Seems very similar to old resolved issue MCPE-41934.
you're closing the game while it's saving your co-ordinates. also don't do this. one time i got relocated and lost my inventory.
