About Autostart and StaY!

Autostart and StaY! is a simple app that lets you do the following:

* Does NOT need root!
* Make an app autostart at system start (autostart mode) with various options, like
- On Boot Completed
- On SD Card Mounted
- On Media Scanner Completed
- And many more!
* Autostart using BroadcastReceiver Intent also supported!
* Make an app always stay in the foreground (persistent mode)
- With the option to keep screen always alive!
* Ensure an app is always running; foreground or background (stay mode)
* Allows to remotely control the app (from another Autostart and StaY! app)
- Added option to reboot remote device too (this particular option needs root from the remote device)
* Advanced scan for low memory devices
* Does NOT need root!

Example:

Let's consider you have a mini-pc, and you are using it as a media station for your TV. One such great app for this purpose is Kodi (XBMC). So, you ultimately want this app to start every time your boot-up your mini-pc and of course you want to make sure that this app always stays in the foreground. This means that no other app can take Kodi's place in the foreground and in the unlikely event of a program crash, the app is launched right back! :)


Thank you for downloading this free app! Let me know if you want any other functionalities added! Please also inform me of any bugs, so that I can fix them! :)

Note:
From version 3.0.2 there is a sticky notification when the service is running. Unfortunately this is the only way to keep the Service from being killed by Android at the moment!

Your app is awesome. I just found that if the android Device lose the date, start the service, the Device get the correct date from network, your app believe that x amount of time passed, so the timmers of Booting after y seconds got launched instantly

Excellent app to startup anything you want by a lot of conditions without any rooting. Also remote control of app is available. It is pity that in my case remote reboot doesn't work, just notifies about it (requires root and I have it).

Almost perfect, but not keeping my SYSD door bell app running all the time, don't know why. Also it does not help me click the login button for SYSD, as SYSD app also need to login button after it is open. Not sure if the above issue that I have can be fixed or not, definitely a 5 stars if it is. Anyway thanks for the app.

I tried this app to start up a security app to keep people from using apps on my phone. If I reboot my phone the security is down until I manually start it rendering the security useless, therefore I got this app but it doesn't seem to work for the latest Android version. It doesn't start up any of my security. The fact that I'm able to write this review is proof since my security is supposed to block Google play. The security app works it just has to be manually started up, but this app was supposed to fix that therefore I am disappointed. I'm going to keep using it in hopes to figure out if I'm doing something wrong or fix it.

Fantastic app. Does what it says. Surprised it's kinda hard to find in play store search. It lets me start up all my notification apps and floating widgets on boot instead of manually going through all the of them.

D70%
by D####:

Not true.. There *is* a way to prevent Android from killing the app without a constant notification. It's called an accessibility service. As a developer, how are you not aware of this?

I love this app and have used it for a long time now. However, after upgrading my phone and to Android 6, I cant seem to get the app to autostart after boot-up. The service toggle always is Red until I manually start it. Can you advise something? Thanks

D70%
by D####:

Does what it says. Except for the "stay" function. Hard to use the phone when the service is running : the polling interval for "stay" (supposedly for apps in background) interrupts everything pops the app the the foreground which is inconvenient if not impossible to work around.

Sometimes the app I have added in the list gets killed while the 'Autostart and Stay' service keeps successfully running. Then I have to launch the app manually. What's wrong?

D70%
by D####:

I think the app itself shuts off because I try to keep a game on "stay" but when I press the home button and come back to it, it restarts the game :/ am I doing something wrong??? I even put the app itself in the list to keep running .-.

Works well comma stops you from having to annoyingly open your favorite apps every time your phone turns off and on

Stupid app it keep in and out when you try tovadd another app. Thanks to the developer of this cause he or she make this app stupid as the developer

W70%

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but the apps don't​ stay in background, they open their interface

Z70%
by Z####:

I've tried a few auto run tools but this one fits my needs the most atm. I really like all the trigger options. Keep up the good work.

B70%
by B####:

Persist should mean the app should be made to run once closed?

D70%
by D####:

Bulls*#t app! Apps that you select to stay or persist keeps restarting every few seconds! Extremely annoying!! Rubbish!

Android 7.1, constantly switches to the app your making automatic, leading to an arduous process.

The how-to-use button goes to a scamming website then redirects to some website that's up for sale.

Perfect for all those apps that just don't self start after boot.

Doesn't work. Tried various options... Keeps shutting down like other apps.

R70%
by R####:

It started the apps once then never restarted them again. What's worst is, the app itself keeps stopping so I have to install a competitor to keep this alive? Lol.

Tried to get it to keep skype running, but it kept bringing Skype into the forground and interfering with the app I as currently using. I would not recommend.

by R####:

Lots of apps do what this does, but most are very complicated and difficult (or impossible) to get to do what you want. Out of about ten (of the highest rated similar) apps this was my favorite.

outstanding. Just installed it as Galaxy note 2 is taking long time to boot up. Result is glaring. My device is previously used to take 120 secs to boot up on restart but now within 60 secs. Recommended

R70%
by R####:

Doesn't always work so when I set start app 20secs after boot completed sometimes it's works but most of the time it doesn't even start the requested app, this app needs a lot of work.

I had some SEVERE technical problems with this at first, but uninstalling and reinstalling seemed to fix it

R70%
by R####:

Works exactly as it says. Awesome app! Will always keep an app you want open and running all the time! Great for an app you need to have running that other apps or programs may shut down. Keeps it running! Love this app!

Can't get it to work without having to manually turn it off after what I need has started up

It desn't work correctly in lollipop :( sometimes work and some never make its job :( uninstalled after test, God bless u, bye.

H70%
by H####:

The option of " Stay " is incredibly useful ... If you need to keep remote conections alive ( for example ) Use this app to "Auto Start" the service and " Stay " to keep the sessions alive ... Also has a " Persist " feature if needed ( which opens the app or service again and again ) But the " Stay " feature is awesome because it grantees the App or service is always running. Even if you close it , this program will notice right away and open the app again .

X70%
by X####:

Starts apps as promised, but does not keep them alive. When an app closes it has to be started again manually. In total: this app is of very limited use.

V70%
by V####:

Don't ask me to rate after using it for 1 reboot. That's just annoying. Don't even know if it works yet! Update: Tried it now... It is too slow to start up the apps. No use for me.

R70%

Requires frequent interventions to keep running properly.

I like this application because it does what it says that it will do it starts up the applications that I want it to.

Installed it to boot up kodi on my android tv box when it's turned on and does just that nicely. Very good

Could be amazing if you hide these apps from the memory usage list to just receive the notifications if that possible
