As stated in the documentation:
"An app holding the REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS permission can trigger a system dialog to let the user add the app to the whitelist directly, without going to settings. The app fires a ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS Intent to trigger the dialog."
Can someone tell me the proper way to fire this intent?
Intent intent = new Intent(); String packageName = context.getPackageName(); PowerManager pm = (PowerManager) context.getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE); if (pm.isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations(packageName)) intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATION_SETTINGS); else { intent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS); intent.setData(Uri.parse("package:" + packageName)); } context.startActivity(intent);
See this answer for more information.
To avoid suspension from Google Play Store, Its Better to Take User to Battery Optimization Settings, for Manually Adding Application to White-list
Intent myIntent = new Intent(); myIntent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATION_SETTINGS); startActivity(myIntent);
Also It doesn't need to have
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS"/>
permission in the manifest file
Intent myIntent = new Intent(); if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) { myIntent.setAction(Settings.ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS); myIntent.setData(Uri.parse("package:" + getActivity().getPackageName())); } startActivity(myIntent);
