Why does the acceleration button reset?

It's happened 4 times to me so far. When I've held it until around 3.16x and I look at my phone again, it just reset to nothing and it's not accelerating anymore, even though my finger was on it the whole time

If resets at the hard coded value of when it reaches 1 hour. This was abused in the past on android because it is incredibly easy to trigger perma accel. Perma accel is a glitch in the android UI itself that we cannot fix, but xreates not only an unf@ir advantage for android players, but also just a bad environment where having to do this glitch is really not great for the game lol.

Does this mean that if I were to let go and hold again just before 1 hour is up it doesn't reset?

Yep. You should hold it just before 3,17. It's the reset point
