Is there still no way (in aosp) to lock an app in recents (RAM basically) so that it will be exempted from the function of the "clear all" button? Most chinese OEMs skins have this feature. This should be added with this hibernation feature.

Anonymous, 20 Apr 2021Given how iOS treats its customers by giving latest feature... moreThe bigger problem imo is the wide af "universal" standards put into each android phone nowadays..
We have companies (like Xiaomi) who put out 1000+$ phones with USB-C 2.0 speeds (400mbps) that doesn't support any new implementation that the USB-C 3.1 is supposed to have.. almost all phones nowadays don't have a dac implemented within their USB-C port.. it's like a zoo in the android world. Does a 2$ saving worth it for the companies to misguide customers like this? with 20 year old tech?
This really is what separates Apple and the rest of the android companies (aside from Google), whenever you buy an apple device you know every little thing just works, as it was made and advertised.
Google should at least enforce some hardware specs if they can't force other companies to remove all the bloatware.

YUKI93, 20 Apr 2021Lol, you clearly need to learn more about Android. Just bec... moreThere is no app called Google mobile service, you will not find it on Android, it comes under a different name. Why don't you just yell is the app you were using otherwise you'll be exposed as another troll trying to hate on Android.
If you disable Google Play services, it won't run in the background, you'll get a notification to enable it when opening certain apps.. Thus verifying that the app is frozen.

How can they not be certain that disabling an app stops EVERYTHING associated with it, if it is to even propose this for malicious apps ? So stop saying b*llshit. I have been disabling apps for ages and never had any problems of apps continuing to open. Also, there are multiple ways to disable an app, you can system disable or user disable. If you made the wrong choice, it was your fault if things didn't work.

The fascists at Google should stop telling everybody what to do or kill apps because they feel like it! My RunKeeper was not working properly because Android kept killing it in the background! I had to manually stop all battery optimization crap that crippled many apps! Stop with this nonsense, Google!

Just because the app has been disabled, it doesn't mean that the tracker is also disabled. Heck, even Google Mobile Services is still running on that disabled app.

It was a long long time ago. Nothing happened.

This has nothing to do with the size of the app on the internal memory. It's about the amount of RAM memory of the phone allocated for the app's process or processes that constantly run (depending on the app), draining the processor, the battery, affecting performance etc.
Hiberating apps will basically force stop the apps until you open them.
People still hibernate, disable, freeze, hide or uninstall bloatware apps, including system apps. But not because there's not enough storage space, but because you get the most out of your phone like that. Performance and battery life.
Better study some computing :))
