Recently, OEM's have started using more aggressive battery saving measures. Some manufacturers like OnePlus are even outright closing apps the moment you leave them. This of course, causes issues with notifications on some apps like Signal, Telegram, etc. The purpose of this sheet is to determine what OEM's are doing and what you need to do to get notifications working on your device. For device manufacturers not listed here, please visit dontkillmyapp.comTo contribute a phone make or model to this list, please follow the link to the form: https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/2/form/view/106h+gSVKml1rJMrbThnC5J47koME6XpFO8kaCViQRE/
