Idle battery drop is another story.

Because Greenify is work to block the apps from trigger awake.

I have OnePlus One, no matter how hard to mod my device, it still drain on idle 1% per hours because I have activate the double tap to wake feature (with or without the help of Greenify)

The double tap on ONO I think is poorly executed...there is absolutely close to  ZERO battery drain on my LG G Pro2 and ex Oppo Find 7 with the double tap activated. I'd been reading of such battery drains in ONO forums. Another problem is the often sudden wakeup of phone while inside pockets ?? - the doubletap is perhaps overly sensitive causing this

Do you hibernate system apps too?

Yeah, I do agree with you the OnePlus Team and as well CM Team are poorly make use of the hardware and software for the DoubleTap to Wake. Is no where as good as LG G series device.

As for the sudden wakeup I haven't face even once it so far for my daily usage, I wonder don't you Find 7 have sudden wakeup ever once before? Since both Find 7 and One are using the same hardware. Just QHD and FHD between it.

Actually android already have a pretty good ram management system.

Greenify is just an extra. I don't know if we really need it but so far so good la.

Besides Greenify i also use ShutApp and CleanMaster to clean the background services

I've been using greenify for a long time.
i dont really know whether it is helping me save battery or causing me more trouble.
since opening a hibernated app has a tiny delay. not noticeable in most app, but very obvious for facebook.
opening a hibernated FB and you have to wait it load from scratch and stuck at the splash screen for 1-2 seconds.

below is battery info of 2 days. both approximate in standby for 7 hours. in the same spot on my table connected to the same wifi.

First one, with greenify.
almost all user apps&games and many unused system apps were greenify. only messaging apps like viber whatsapp hangouts, and google search were left untouched.


second one, with greenify uninstalled.
i left google+, chrome, and FB running in the background (open the app and press home button)
wakelock duration is almost twice compared with with greenify, FB being the biggest culprit


but strangely...the battery drain is the same, both left with 97%. , both case also lose 3% over a period of 7 hours.
greenify doesn't do much to help save battery.
and in the case of FB, it causes unnecessary delay for app opening.

do you still think it's worth using greenify?

Can greenify freezes chrome and google services. Those seems to be running in background all the time. Does this consume battery?

Mind if I ask what phone are you using? That battery life is pretty healthy in the first place.

IMO the first few % is not accurate, sometime even after some usage the % still not dropped. maybe should try more hours until the % drop till 90% or less.
chrome i think no need to greenify. i check with wakelock, it doesn't wakes up the system or prevent from deep sleep.
but google search in other hands really need to be greenify, it wakes the system way too much time.

If i disable google search,playstore still functioning rite?

I think you miss understand the way of Greenify usage, I not sure for ShutApp, but CleanMaster basically just another Apps Killer, or you can call it Force Close. Greenify doesn't not kill the apps like any other Apps Killer or Task Manager, Greenify is put the apps to sleep (or you can call it Hibernate) and when you need it or use it, it resume back where you left off, while Task Killer can't do this.

I only sleep 7 hours a day. That only enough to make it drop 3%.
U wan me to drain it in standby to 90% then I need to leave it idle 21 hours. Impossible la. I need to use my phone.

Google now won't work if u greenify search. So I leave it on.

Exactly, I know what Greenify does. I can only say that one of the reason why I sometimes prefer killing tasks completely is to free up RAM. I'm too used to the built in cleaner of the MIUI. Now that I've gone to AOSP, I have yet to give up this idea of killing the tasks completely to free up RAM.

But then again, I have yet to discover if an app goes into hibernation will it take up the RAM usage as well? 

Otherwise the data from 100% drop few % is not accurate. My G Pro 2 from 100% directly use for 20 minutes SOT still show 100%.

Only if you always use Google Now voice function, otherwise no point to have it keep running and every minute it'll wake up the device.
No point to always killing app, android system is designed to load app that you frequently use as stand by so killing it means it'll load the app over and over again making your battery worse.

When greenify put an app into hibernation it basically just kill the app when going into deep sleep. It will also free up the ram. This is why I didn't put Chrome in greenify list, otherwise it will load again all the many tabs.

After JellyBean/ICS you no longer need to kill task unless you are using 512RAM bro

Also, the Greenify Hibernation doesn't take your RAM if your Apps goes hibernated. It work exactly like Task Killer but it won't kill it, I don't know code, but this is really how it works, you try compare task killer and Greenify on the Chrome (with few tabs) you can get what I mean.

im still using it.

not bcoz of the battery, but i need it to disable push notification on certain apps coz its annoying.

if its improving my battery life, its a plus
