ForceDoze is an Android app that helps force your device into Doze mode even when you are using it, extending battery life by restricting background activity and notifications.
ForceDoze is an Android application developed to help users extend their device's battery life. It works by forcing your Android device into Doze mode even when the screen is on and you are actively using apps.
Doze mode was introduced in Android 6.0 Marshmallow as a system power-saving feature. It restricts background activity and postpones notifications when your device is unused for a period of time. This puts your device in a deep sleep state, saving battery.
However, Doze mode normally only activates when your device is stationary for some time and the screen is off. ForceDoze overrides this behavior and makes Doze work even when the device is in use with screen on.
By limiting background syncing and postponing notifications when you are actively on your phone, ForceDoze claims to provide significant boosts to battery life. Less strain on the battery translates to hours of extra usage time.
The app uses accessibility permissions to monitor app usage data and device stationary periods. It then activates Doze when appropriate to reduce activity even as you use the device. There are options provided to customize when ForceDoze kicks in.
The app works without needing root access. It is free to use but includes advertisements. For an uninterrupted ad-free experience, a paid pro upgrade is also available.
