Capacitor plugin to access battery optimization settings on Android.

Installation

See Getting started with Insiders and follow the instructions to install the plugin.

After that, follow the platform-specific instructions in the section Android.

Android

This API requires the following permissions be added to your AndroidManifest.xml before the application tag if you want to request direct exemption from Power Management features:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS" />

⚠️ Attention: Google Play policies prohibit apps from requesting direct exemption from Power Management features in Android 6.0+ (Doze and App Standby) unless the core function of the app is adversely affected. Source

Configuration

No configuration required for this plugin.

Demo

    return false;
  }
  const { enabled } = await BatteryOptimization.isBatteryOptimizationEnabled();
  return enabled;
};

const openBatteryOptimizationSettings = async () => {
  if (Capacitor.getPlatform() !== 'android') {
    return;
  }
  await BatteryOptimization.openBatteryOptimizationSettings();
};
