Welcome toBlog-IT People- In general, applications installed on Android smartphones have 2 kinds of ways of working, namely applications that occur when we open / play, then applications that silently take place behind the screen / background / background. Whether running in the interface or in the background, these two processes still eat up memory and battery resources
Most of the latest smartphones are equipped with large battery capacity, above average RAM memory resources and good multitasking capabilities. Some applications running in the background is not crazy anymore, regardless of the application that supports the operating method or applications from third parties. Each application usually runs to meet their respective functional needs.
Many applications running in the background consume RAM memory resources and continuously advance processor performance to its maximum limit. This if left too long can cause blank / hang / not responding due to a decrease in appearance
How to Close Apps that are Running in the Background
How to close applications that run in the background forcibly is actually not that difficult to do. If users feel the smartphone's performance is slow, they tend to look at the current memory usage status to find out what applications are consuming too much memory.
1. Force Close Application Through Settings Menu
The easiest and most practical way to stop running applications is to use the Force Close feature or commonly called forcibly stopping running application services through your HP settings or settings. Why use this method? because every application either from the system or the one we install is definitely well organized on the "Application List" menu
Before that, first check what applications are running in the background, here's how:
- Please open the settings menu
- You go to the Memory or Applications menu
- Then tap the Running Apps menu tab
- Then please note what applications are currently in progress, also observe how much memory space they consume
- Consider which apps are not important not to be
Then force the application to stop working, by:
- First you open the HP settings menu again
- You go to the Application menu
- Then at this stage you look for applications that are running in the background (eg whatsapp) then click on the application
- The last thing you just have to do is press the Force Stop button
After following the steps above, the running app has now stopped. Although it does not demand the possibility that the application will restart automatically when the smartphone reboots or connects-disconnects mobile data. Alternatively, you can uninstall, if the application is rarely used or disable the application so that it does not run automatically even after the cellphone is restarted
2. Installing the Task Manager Application on HP
Using complementary applications to close applications that are running in the background can indeed be done on Android phones. There are many and varied applications available on the Google Playstore.
Unlike the first method above, where to see running applications we have to look for them manually, but in this second method we will install an application called Task manager.
Like the desktop-style Task manager application that shows the remaining memory and a list of ongoing services, the Android-style Task manager application also has more or less the same features. You can see some application services running in the background, as well as the amount of memory used.
Actually, there are many memory space usage monitoring applications on Android smartphones, one of which is Advanced Task Manager, here's how:
In the next step, we will turn on the app restriction feature:
Actually, there are many memory space usage monitoring applications on Android smartphones, one of which is Advanced Task Manager, here's how:
- Please install the Advanced Task Manager application on the Google Play Store
- Then install it into your smart phone and open the application
- You see which applications are consuming too much memory, click the application you want to stop and click Boost
- After that, you wait for the process to finish and the application will stop running in the background
3. Limit Apps Running in the Background
The latest smartphones are currently equipped with application restriction features that can take place to avoid hang/not responding/blank on the android method. Applications that run in the background often go unnoticed by the user. All android operating systems since the Froyo version also support this feature.
Before enabling the application restriction feature, we must enable developer mode first, here are the steps;
- You open the dishsuit
- Please enter the dishcell phone talk
- You guys tapformation number(build number) repeatedly
- Make sure to tap it until a notification appears "You have become a developer"
In the next step, we will turn on the app restriction feature:
- You open the HP settings menu again
- Please see the chapter below and tap menuDeveloper
- You ChooseLimit Background Process
- Then you limit the amount of memory according to your taste
4. Turn off synchronization of android cellphones
Many applications run in the background because they synchronize data from their servers, for example the gmail application. Of course, if your cellphone is registered with 2-3 Google accounts, then all of these accounts automatically synchronize data every few minutes
To minimize background applications, one way that is quite effective is turning off account synchronization so that when the gmail account does not request data synchronization, the related application will also not access server data.
The weakness of this method is that when the user turns off automatic synchronization, the notification of incoming messages does not appear. Users must open the gmail, whatsapp, fb lite application manually and then refresh it (tap down) to update the message history
However, if the application in question such as gmail is indeed deemed not important to run, you should disable the automatic data synchronization feature from the application server.

5. Install the quota saving application
When connected to the internet, some apps silently suck up the phone's quota and resources. Whether it's for the need to download data from their server or the reason is another thing that is clearly very detrimental. Alternatively, you can install applications to reduce quota where one of the features is to limit application access behind the scenes
- Data Eye: displays data usage information in real time, automatically turns off applications that are rarely opened, stops background applications and organizes internet quota usage so that it runs according to the wishes of HP users
- Glass Wire: apart from reducing quota and memory, another function it has is as a security. The UI looks simple with the ability to block applications that consume the most data and HP memory packages
- My Data Manager: able to manage data usage from various installed applications, accompanied by a history that shows data usage for a certain century
- Net Guard: watch which applications run automatically when the data package is activated, is considered one of the best internet quota saving and security applications because it is equipped with a password manager feature
- Data saver: really light, can organize a wifi connection that is connected to a cellphone. Another additional feature can find public wifi with the best signal
6. Delete the app
It is recommended to uninstall the list of applications that are not or rarely used, after all, all installed applications, whether opened or not, are still running in the background. Likewise, applications with the label mod/full version/crack should be removed because this kind of application has been infiltrated by various types of viruses, adware and dangerous malware.
You may need to root the Android method so that you can delete all the factory default application lists (bloatware) if you feel it is not important such as bee, line, BBM and so on. But don't forget to unroot again so that the android system is not infected with viruses
Benefits of stopping apps running in the background
Why should background running apps be minimized? what are the benefits of doing this?
- HP performance becomes flawless, normal, and light. Stopping the application periodically will not make the processor work too hard so it can manage memory usage better
- Avoiding hangs, not responding, blanks and the like. Of course, the reason is that RAM memory is always available to run the requested application, so the cellphone is able to avoid slowing down
- RAM feels relieved and light, the load on RAM performance is quite heavy because it has to provide space for several applications to run at once. By turning off useless applications can help relax the performance of the RAM device so that it is always in its best condition
- Avoid certain errors. The problem with the force close error that the application takes too long to respond can be removed and its occurrence saved
- Save battery resources, applications that run in the background not only eat RAM but also battery resources that make the cellphone feel wasteful and often charge. We have to save the remaining battery so that it can be used longer, especially if your work is outdoors
- Stops virus swelling, the possibility is very small, especially if you often download official applications from the Playstore that have been filtered by the PlayProtect scan. Meanwhile, for those of you who like to install mod/full version applications from third parties, you have to bear the risk of your cellphone being infected with a virus
Closing
Thus a short article about news on how to stop applications that run in the background of anAndroid smartphone. Hopefully this method can overcome slow HP performance in response to memoryoverload, especially for those who are still using old school cellphones with small RAM capacities.Hopefully useful, if anyone wants to add please. Thank you so much www.helmykediri.com ..........
