  • Phone settings > Advanced Settings > Battery Manager > Protected apps – check for your app as Protected
  • Phone settings > Apps > Your app > Battery > Power-intensive prompt [x] and Keep running after screen off [x]
  • Phone settings > Apps > Advanced (At the bottom) > Ignore optimisations > Press Allowed > All apps > Find your app on the list and set to Allow

HUAWEI P9 PLUS
  • Phone settings > Apps > Settings > Special access > Ignore battery optimisation > select allow for your app.

HUAWEI P10/P20
