speed up your phone, but Android inherently restricts idle applications to conserve battery, so there’s no need for constant management. Applications like Gmail continue to operate background services for notifications even after you close them, thus the app doesn’t have to remain open at all times. Additionally, with the release of Android 15 supporting 16KB memory pages, you may experience quicker app launches — on average 3% faster and up to 30% in certain tests. Nevertheless, those enhancements at the system level do not eliminate the necessity for intelligent app management, where your configurations play a critical role.
If you’re truly looking to enhance your device’s performance, the essential adjustment lies in the app’s settings — primarily background battery limits. However, each application comes with its own specific options, and some allow for more modifications than others. We will detail how Android manages idle applications and where you can modify settings below. A productive starting point is the app’s Permissions section, where you can disable unnecessary access.
