Safety and disclaimer

Force-stopping apps can affect notifications, background sync, alarms, or unsaved state. Do not rely on Cleanify for apps that must keep running (e.g. critical messaging, accessibility, banking, or device administration) unless you know what you are doing. Read the Terms of Use. This project is maintained by volunteers; use at your own risk.

Requirements

• Android 8.0+
• Accessibility enabled for Cleanify when you want automated force-stop.
• On Android 11+, broad package visibility may require the declared QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES usage (see manifest).
