One of the most popular
apps among
root users, Greenify, is all set to widen its audience!
Greenify, the popular
battery-saving
app is now expanding support to non-rooted devices as well. If you aren't aware of Greenify's functionality, here's what it does: the
app basically puts user-selected
apps into 'hibernation' when they aren't running in the foreground. This allows you to save on juice, since many tend leave a plethora of
applications running in the background without explicitly closing them.
Until v2.0, the
app required the
device to be rooted, which meant there was a large chunk of users that could not avail the functionality of the
app which is now eliminated. However, there's a limitation for those using the
app in non-
root mode; automatic hibernation is disabled due to privilege restrictions. However, users can still create a 'Hibernate All' shortcut.
