I kind of understand manufacturers getting aggressive about rogue inefficient apps wasting cpu cycles and making their battery life look bad.
But it’s weird and lazy that on an 8GB phone they kill the app rather than just suspend it (to stop it using any cpu)?
On iOS, even in low-power mode, and on a phone with far less RAM, apps rarely have to reload unless you’ve force-quit them or have gone for days without using them.
