Google finally recognizes that OEM's are killing background tasks developers need to take survey

I found this today, as I have been seeing the Hubitat app being kill on various OEM version of Android such as:

  • Samsung
  • TCL
  • Motorola

I sure hope that the Hubitat dev's would take this survey since their "notification" only work for a short period of time when you first launch the app on the phones I have listed. After say 24 hours notification no longer work unless you use the app again.

I have a Samsung device - and have disabled the setting to "put unused apps to sleep". Haven't had any trouble with notifications...

I have a newer samsung device and have never had issues with hubitat sending me notifications after long periods of time. The setting that @dkilgore90 mentioned is also turned on. So YMMV apparently.
