Battery Settings #

If your app implements a tracking use case, it will probably need to run for hours in the background. However, by default Android may prevent apps to run for long periods of time in order to save battery. You may disable this Android feature by:

  1. Disabling the Power Saver mode in your smartphone.
  2. Disabling the battery optimization feature for your app.

Disable Power Saver Mode #

You may disable the Power Saver mode in Settings> Battery> Power Saver > Disable. The specific route may vary depending on the Android version.

Disable Battery Optimization for your app #

In addition, You will need to deactivate the battery optimization option for your app. This action can be performed by choosing Apps on the Settings menu and looking for either Situm Mapping Tool or Situm MRM Tracker in the settings search engine.

Then, in the configuration of your App, select the option Battery and configured it as Unrestricted.

Disabling WiFi Throttling with ADB #

As an alternative to the previous process, you may also disable WiFi Throttling in your device by using ADB. First of all, you should install and get ADB running on your computer. Then, connect your smartphone to your computer via USB and introduce the following command in your favorite console:

Enabling Wifi & Bluetooth scanning #

In order to scan WiFi and BLE signals correctly, you must allow scanning WiFi networks and Bluetooth beacons in Settings > Location > Location Services and activate Wifi & Bluetooth scanning.

Finally, login into your app again.
