Keep It Running - app launcher

KeepItRunning — Keep your important apps active

KeepItRunning helps ensure your essential apps stay running by periodically checking and relaunching them — without manual effort. Select the apps you care about and let the app handle the rest.

✔️ Why KeepItRunning?

Some apps get stopped by Android’s background limits or battery optimization — even when you need them. KeepItRunning runs as a foreground service to periodically verify and relaunch your selected apps so they remain active and reachable.

⚙️ How It Works

1. Open the app and browse your installed apps
2. Check the ones you want to keep running
3. Set your preferred interval
4. Enable the service

KeepItRunning will then run in the background and relaunch apps when needed — even after a reboot.

🔐 Permissions Explained

• Display over other apps — required to launch apps from the background
• Usage access — lets the app detect running apps and avoid unnecessary relaunches
• Notifications — needed for the foreground service and optional launch alerts

These permissions are essential for the core functionality — we don’t request anything else.
