Android: stop apps running in the background.

If you have closed all open applications through the multitasking button in the navigation bar, there are many "processes" of different applications that run almost continuously without you knowing it. The first thing to do is to identify them.

go to the settings, then in the developer options, then find the "Running Services" to see the applications that are currently consuming RAM of your smartphone.

You'll find processes related to the system and some Google apps that you are advised not to close to keep your device running.But other apps you use little or not at all may remain idle for different reasons. You can see in detail how much RAM they use in real time. Now that you've identified your targets, it's time to take action!

Android: Use Greenify to "freeze" apps

Unfortunately, it is often the applications that are used the most that still consume RAM and autonomy when they are closed. For those, I advise you to download the excellent application Greenify which will propose you to hibernate the selected applications when you do not use them. This is a good alternative to uninstalling and disabling.

The application is available for free on the Play Store, but there is a paid version that goes even further if you have root access, with an automatic hibernation system.
