great app.
every so often.. its healthy to stop apps that you aren't using and dont plan to use soon.
saves you phone battery.

you can, now, choose to disable all "background usage" from
Settings > Apps > * App info > App battery usage

that's what i did for Voyager. If it's not on screen in the foreground, it's not 'working'.

At first i missed superFreeze and tried all the alternatives too, but then i read some about the updated battery permissions (there's also no bloatware on LineageOS). i ended up uninstalling superFreeze.
With my first Android with all the bloat designed to "phone home" all the time, superFreeze was essential (as well as Netguard and ADB)

    i see what your saying.
    i think it would be most ideal to test it.
    it may be lower resource to force kill.
    estimates vary.. but i average, as low as: 20x , 4x lower. (those are unverified approximations. and i really think it depends on the app)
    for cache clearing.. i can see lemmy(voyager) is using 34mb(some apps like firefox use alot more).. clearing puts it down to zero.

    this app can live in my RAM all day https://f-droid.org/packages/org.billthefarmer.editor

    warning: unwise use of adb can brick your system and you would have to wipe your whole phone
