khwarizmi Active Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 10, 2019 #2 As far as I know, exitApplication closes the application when applied from the only one active view, try to close every activity with acttivity.finish then you can apply exitApplication from the last one. Upvote 0

kisoft Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 10, 2019 #3 Hello. do not use exitApplication, android will treat it as if the application has been suspended. Use activity.finish and let the system close the application. Do not fight it. Upvote 0

LucaMs Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 10, 2019 #4 I write this just to make me tease To definitively close an app, I thought it was enough to close all the Activities and stop all the Services. Until, very recently, despite my "experience", that... it is not possible to stop the Starter service (I guess it's a protection set by Erel). Upvote 0

Cableguy Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 16, 2019 #8 As far as I Know, the App only "dies" when the OS decides to "kill" it in order to free resources. All other "methods" only let the OS know that the app is no longer in active use. Upvote 0

Star-Dust Expert Licensed User Longtime User Dec 16, 2019 #10 The method that I suggested closes all the activities in case the app has opened more than one and prevents the operating system from restarting the app believing that it has been interrupted by mistake. But it always remains in the task manager except you set it to not appear entirely on the task manager Grom Manifest.
