Frequently Asked Questions
1. What happens when an app is put to sleep?
The app won’t run in the background, meaning it won’t send notifications, sync data, or consume battery unless you open it manually.
2. Can I manually choose which apps to sleep?
Yes. In Background usage limits, tap Sleeping apps or Deep sleeping apps to add or remove specific apps based on your preferences.
3. Will putting apps to sleep delete their data?
No. Sleeping apps are not deleted, and their data remains intact. They’re just paused in the background until you use them again.
