Editor's Overview

NoMoreBackground is a app manager application developed by Adil Hanney, packaged as a single Android APK of version 2.7 weighing in at 19.94 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 19.94 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "Adil Hanney" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

About this app

A tool to manage which Android™ apps can run in the background using adb, Shizuku, or root.

You probably don't need some random takeaway app doing anything in the background. And maybe you don't want that mobile game wasting your data when you're not using it.

NoMoreBackground gives you a list of your apps and lets you choose which of them you want having background permissions, all on one screen, to help you get the most out of your battery.

And the best part? When you're done, you can close NoMoreBackground and move on with your life. No need to "optimize" every day like some other tools: set and forget!

Tip: Some apps may still run in the background even if you turn them off here.
If you use an app very infrequently, right click it and archive it. The app itself will be uninstalled but its data will remain. This means when you next open it, it'll be reinstalled and you'll still be logged in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is NoMoreBackground free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does NoMoreBackground require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is NoMoreBackground safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by Adil Hanney. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update NoMoreBackground?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
