Disable battery optimization

By default Android kills long running apps as they drain the battery. With enabled battery optimization, Gotify will be killed and you wont receive any notifications.

Here is one way to disable battery optimization for Gotify.

• Open "Settings"
• Search for "Battery Optimization"
• Find "Gotify" and disable battery optimization

See also https://dontkillmyapp.com for phone manufacturer specific instructions to disable battery optimizations.

Minimize the Gotify foreground notification

Only possible for Android version >= 8

The foreground notification showing the connection status can be manually minimized to be less intrusive:

• Open Settings -> Apps -> Gotify
• Click Notifications
• Click on Gotify foreground notification
• Select a different "Behavior" or "Importance" (depends on your android version)
• Restart Gotify
