Greenify

Greenify is a performance and battery management app that hibernates misbehaving apps when you are not using them.

Greenify addresses phones that feel slow or drain battery after many apps are installed. It helps you spot apps that overwork in the background and puts them to sleep when you are not using them. As a result, everyday performance feels more consistent, and charging intervals can be more predictable. If you need simple control without heavy tweaking, you can download Greenify and start with basic hibernation. Additionally, the app keeps foreground functions intact, so active tasks remain available when launched.

Greenify Features

App hibernation to reduce lag and drain

Greenify helps you identify apps that misbehave, then hibernates them when you are not actively using them. During hibernation, background services, periodic tasks, event receivers, alarms, widget updates, and push messages are paused. When you launch an app in the foreground, its normal functions remain available.

Aggressive Doze and Doze on the Go

On Android 6 and above, Greenify APK supports Aggressive Doze and Doze on the Go to help maximize battery saving. These modes work even without root and can be configured in settings for clearer behavior. This addition complements app hibernation, so you can maintain better standby efficiency while moving or when the screen is off.

Automation and required permissions

• Device administrator rights to turn off the screen after automated hibernation on devices without root
• Draw over other apps to briefly dim the screen during automatic hibernation
• Disable screen lock and bind accessibility service to enable automation on devices without root
• Get accounts and write sync settings to manage overly frequent sync tasks

Accessibility is used to automate hibernation. Personal data is not collected. The background service needed for auto hibernation is lightweight with near zero CPU and battery impact.

Usage cautions

Greenifying an app stops its background activity until you use it again. Do not greenify alarm clock apps or instant messaging apps if you rely on timely alerts. Always verify the impact on apps you depend on, then adjust your hibernation list based on real usage.

Get started with Greenify

Greenify provides clear control over background activity and standby behavior. Set up hibernation and test with your most used apps for consistent performance and better battery life. To stay current with improvements, install the Greenify latest version and review settings before enabling automation.
