Some apps don't have an autostart function, although it might be useful (some messengers, for example). In the following, we will go into the extent to which you can design the autostart for apps according to your own needs. Since there is no built-in start menu under Android, as is the case with Windows computers, the autostart must be processed using an app. However, removing system apps is not recommended to avoid malfunctions.
Add and remove apps from autostart
You can do this using AutoStart - No root . Then open the app. You can now edit all the details of your autostart here:
- Tap " Auto startup: OFF " to allow this app to customize the startup. The option should then be " ON ".
- Via " Applications: Add " you can add apps from a list to your autostart.
- With " Start Delay " you can specify how much time elapses in seconds between starting the smartphone and opening the apps. This also includes the " Next app delay " function. Here you specify how much time should pass between the opening processes of the individual apps.
- If you want to remove an app from the autostart , you can do this directly in the start view of AutoStart - No root. Just tap the red cross on the right-hand side next to the relevant app.
- The app then asks you " Remove App from autostart list? ". Confirm your selection by tapping " Yes ".
Add apps to autostart with Llama / Automate
