Feature Request for priority apps

Sailor1 — Sun, 12 Feb 2017 22:18:20 GMT

Recently i heard Samsung has enabled a priority feature .. Like which app we would like to keep in the Memory and which we don't mind getting closed automatically

For example at times I'm downloading something on Chrome and i am using other apps and sometimes i find it that it has been closed automatically because of less ram... So i would set it as a priority to be kept in memory so that my download does not get interrupted

Hope i explained myself well.... Please respond official mods

You're wanting a toggle for keep alive/permanent background service.

You can half bake selectively keep apps alive by keeping the app window in the Overview Soft Key Screen, and not swiping to close

That doesn't work always... I want a priority mode kind of thing

Hi @Sailor,

That sounds pretty awesome!

Basically a feature that makes sure that an application won't be closed down due to opening another application that needs the RAM memory has been launched, and other applications should be closed instead of the application with the set priority.

I can see how this can very useful so I will make sure to forward this as user feedback!

Do note that I can't make any promises that this will be implemented, but I thank you for your suggestion!
