DontKillMyApp: Make apps work 2.6

The official DontKillMyApp app is now available. This app aims to improve the functionality of your apps, regardless of whether you own a Pixel device.

With DontKillMyApp, you can optimize your phone's background tasks so that your apps can continue to perform even when you're not actively using the screen.

Key Features:

• DKMA benchmark: Assess how aggressively your phone terminates background apps
• Guides: Receive actionable steps to overcome common background process restrictions
• Make a change: Contribute to the Android ecosystem by sharing your benchmark report on dontkillmyapp.com

DontKillMyApp serves as a benchmark tool that evaluates your phone's support for background processing. You can measure its performance prior to setup, then consult the provided guides and re-evaluate to see the improvements made during the setup process.

You can easily share your benchmark report within the app, which will be compiled and used to determine an overall negative score on dontkillmyapp.com. This information helps the maintainers assess and evaluate the ecosystem's performance.

How does the benchmark work? (Technical!) The app analyzes executed vs. expected tasks by initiating a foreground service, utilizing a wake lock, scheduling repetitive tasks on both the main thread and a custom thread executor, as well as setting regular alarms with AlarmManager.setExactAndAllowWhileIdle.

This project is maintained by dedicated volunteers who are passionate about enhancing the Android ecosystem and addressing current pain points.
