Just wanted to post this in case B4A or any libraries use this API:

I just changed my Smartphone from a Samsung Android 4.4 to Android 9 (thinking "ah, Android 9 should be OK") and you talking about Android 11

I am not sure about the background workers but pretty sure b4a and the standard libraries dont use that api

It's your nickname's fault, @f0raster0, you should have used @f0raster0


(I bought a device with Android 7 just over a year ago, updated it to 8 and... maybe in 10 years I'll buy another one! )

That's true. There is an internal thread pool in B4A framework that is used by most background tasks.
