ForceDoze for Android
Your app make my phone colder like a beer! (LG G4 users knows how hot this phone has). I was using Greenify and make a nice job. But, I was scared when I read a review about it (data stealing or something like that). Just one thing: '#' always in my statusbar since start to use the app. Is normal? I'm using Lineage OS 14.1 Android 7.1.2 (G4 H811).
This saved my S7 Edge (Snapdragon) from having awful battery life... Sitting on 51% right now with 4 hours SOT thanks to this app
VZW Galaxy S7, since update to Nougat a couple features don't work properly. Auto Brightness and rotation can't grant access, also doze still turns off sensors even though option is checked. Removed a star until these can be fixed.
Reduce battery drain greatly when on stanby. Thanks and keep it up
effective app with less struggle when using it! make my s7 idle time much much better, keep it up! thank you
Great, my battery is very consistent now and drains don't happen anymore. It's very nuch a set it and forget it app that works very well.
Non root user. I did the adb command stuff, and now my phone lasts 3 days without need to be charged. Just one thing: sometimes it does enter does, sometimes it just don't, even if phone has been asleep for many hours
I'm not sure if it is thanks to this app. But my standby time is enormous now. The phone can be idle for hours with 0% energy used.
Great up. Just one issue, or maybe it isn't, but when I put an app in the block list, the shortcut of that app disappears from my homescreen.
Not quite sure just download the app so cannot say it works or doesn't work
Works sometimes but mostly keeps my phone awake somehow and then drains the battery. Thus, it does the opposite of what it is supposed to do.
Beautiful app ! I am far from fully learning what to do with it, but the results are, so far, staggering.
I'm still getting notifications from non-whitelisted apps. [CORRECTION] What amazing response time from the developer. Thanks!!! You answered my concern perfectly.
Just the same as the previous version. Works but does not disable motion sensors. They are disabled first when installed but within 24 hours it stops working. Back to greenify. Their doze on the go works and that's the key factor for me. I've tried contacting the developer but no reply. In the end it is all about support
Comes out of doze very often
The best app to put immediate doze state on my oneplus 3. Period. You guys should definitiely try it when rooted !.
Absolutely love it. It help battery to reduce drainage in standby mode.
Great app. Getting 0% drain on standby.
Doesn't work.
It drain my battery
Doze stats not showing in notification - Xperia z2
It actually works
Thanks ... just what i needed to know :)
Great app. I see actual improvement in my battery life.
Clean and easy to use. does just this thing great to save battery
It’s a great app, I like the persistent notification showing how much battery was drained during screen off/doze also. The app claims to be dozing more than it actually is though, checked GSAM battery monitor and it dozes on and off but the app stores it as a continuous doze session. In general, really solid app though and saves me a tonne of battery.
This is the best! I lose less than 1% battery per hour when idling, and phone is fully functional. Great app! Sent you a small donation to say thanks and keep up the good work.
I can translate the app in HINDI, URDU & ARABIC. Just contact me. Thanks.
Much needed app for Galaxy S6
Drastically improves battery... Just amazing....
Awesome!!!
Love the new update. You seem to have removed the option to activate doze on unsupported devices. ForceDoze version 1.3.7 was able to activate doze on my custom 7.1.1 ROM when it had both the deep and idle flags set to false; so I don't think the code would require much refactoring. Any reason why you've removed it though?
Actually works! BUT! I don't think current version is reporting "Doze" correctly. It does actually save battery as if Doze is working, but when I look at battery stats (inside ForceDoze, or in GSam) it doesn't seem Doze takes effect right away (I did enable this in settings). Maybe its a bug? If the dev can fix or help me understand this issue, I'll definitely bump the rating to 5 stars. DEFINITELY BETTER THAN ANY OTHER DOZE APPS!
It seems to work after giving it perms via ADB but I did have to reset it and give the permissions back as several options became greyed out. Not sure if this is due to this being a Note7 or not. Also, I donated but I still get prompted to donate. It might be nice to have a licensed "pro" version or a check for donation status. :)
This is probably one of the best apps you could possibly download. It is the only app in the Google Play store that can realistically improve battery life. None of the other so called "battery savers" are worth a crap. Added an average of an hour and a half of additional screen-on-time on my Galaxy S7
Reports doze time since screen is off but it does not match the doze time in gsam battery monitor. So forcedoze is reporting much much higher doze time than the monitor is actually showing so I'm not sure if it's actually working. Another monitor that confirms this is greenify notifications. My phone was still on table when tested this.
Splendid suppliment to marshmallow's inbuilt doze mode. I personally always thought 30 minutes too much for doze to kick in and that too only if the phone is lying absolutely still. Seriously, who leaves his/phone still for half an hour unless the person is asleep?? This app effectively takes care of those flaws. Brilliant!!!
Great app - simple design yet very efficient. With the adb command from above it works flawlessly with my stock/unrooted Huawei Mate S (in fact it works better than Greenify). And after configuring the Whitelist, battery optimization and other options in EMUI 4 I have no issues with notifications and/or incoming calls and texts while the phone is in doze mode. Battery life has improved dramatically - especially on days when I carry my phone around in my pocket most of the time.
This app is awesome! I get 2x to 3x the previous battery power! I used to be able to only use my phone from 7 am to 11 am and it would die, but now I get a little over 36 hours of normal use! Compliments the newest Android VERY well!

After two days of use, I can report no negatives, and my battery settings are predicting three days' battery life. It's unlikely to last that long, because at some point I'll use it like a smartphone and not like some old Nokia, but already I can see the difference when my phone's been sitting a while in my pocket. Great work. And thanks for the non-root workaround.
