I noticed that all the apps on my Pixel 8 has the “Allow background usage” option enabled. Didn’t this use to be an opt-in setting?
I’m worried that something got messed up when I had to do a copy from my Pixel 8 (Android 15) to my old Pixel 5 (Android 14) and back to my Pixel 8 again (I had to factory reset my Pixel 8 before sending it in for repair).
Android by default does remove permissions from unused apps, and the run in background permission is one of the ones it will remove. It doesn’t say on that page but I think the threshold is 3 months.
