"body": "Okay. I took a deeper dive into this. I think you have to worry about doze mode too which kill network communications. And doze mode ignores wake-locks too.\r\nhttps://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/doze-standby#restrictions\r\n\r\nThe \"REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS\" manifest permission isn't enough. You also have to request the end-user's permission as well. Details about this can be found below. It involves displaying a system dialog via a {{startActivity()}} and an {{Intent}}, which you *+can+* do in JavaScript. Just note that the end-user can say \"no\" and ban your app from ever requesting this again.\r\nhttps://commonsware.com/blog/2015/11/11/google-anti-trust-issues.html\r\n\r\nSo, you need to add the permission in your \"tiapp.xml\". Titanium blindly copies whatever permission you add here, so this part was already working.\r\n{code:xml}\r\n\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\r\n\r\n{code}\r\n\r\nAnd you can request the end-user to give your app permission as follows.\r\n{code:javascript}\r\nfunction requestIgnoreBatteryOptimizations() {\r\n\tif (Ti.Platform.Android.API_LEVEL >= 23) {\r\n\t\tvar intent = Ti.Android.createIntent({\r\n\t\t\taction: \"android.settings.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS\",\r\n\t\t\tdata: \"package:\" + Ti.App.Android.launchIntent.packageName,\r\n\t\t});\r\n\t\tTi.Android.currentActivity.startActivity(intent);\r\n\t}\r\n}\r\n{code}\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, Google doesn't appear to provide any feedback on which option (\"Allow\" or \"Deny\") was selected in the request dialog shown by the above code. Google doesn't return a \"result\" when launched via {{startActivityForResult()}}. Nor are there any native listeners. It looks like your only option is to poll the Java [PowerManager.isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations()|https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/PowerManager#isIgnoringBatteryOptimizations(java.lang.String)] method via hyperloop.\r\n\r\nDoing the above appears to be your only option. And it appears to be frowned upon by Google too and they'll likely question it if they ever review your app to be \"featured\" on Google Play. Google's list of what they think is acceptable for an app to do this can be found below.\r\nhttps://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/doze-standby#whitelisting-cases\r\n",
