Battery optimization
Stop background restrictions from breaking widgets, gestures, and reloads.
Android includes power-saving features that stop apps from running in the background.
That helps battery life, but it can also cause problems for launchers like Lawnchair.
How battery optimization affects Lawnchair
If your device’s system kills Lawnchair to save battery, you may experience the following issues:
Gestures, such as double-tap to sleep, stop working because the system disables the accessibility service
Widgets stop updating or become unresponsive
The home screen reloads or appears with a delay after leaving an app

Because each manufacturer handles these settings differently, the exact steps vary by device.
