Disable Startup apps with no root - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any way to control apps at startup without root?

package disabler pro from the play store is your best bet.

I have it but this disable the whole app
I want to keep the app and stop it from running at startup

As far as I understood what you want to accomplish, your best bet is greenify. You will keep your apps, but you may choose the ones taht will get stopped. You won´t avoid them of starting with your phone, but you will be able to stop them with a swipe.
In my case, I had nova launcher configured so the swipe up is the shortcut to greenify sleep the apps and lock the screen.

[Q] ***Freak out**Disable swipe up launching My magazine? Pullup or tasker?

Every time I swipe up from home it would launch the My magazine app. This totally freak me out.
I really want to stay in TW launcher but this swipe up just really pissed me off.
Disable the magazine app or delete it or freeze it would still bring your to play store and told you " item not found"
I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2510102
I am wondering since one could use tasker to change the swipe up function, could we just modified some where of the system to disable this annoying function?
Or could we just use something like Pullup but just Pull up none thing?
Thank you.
( I know I could install third party launcher but Personally I like note 3 launcher a lot except the stupid My magazine )

App resetting after reboot!

Has anyone else had any problems with apps getting reset to default after reboot? After rebooting my phone tonight my apps like Instagram and games that required a log in had all been reset and my theme that was set earlier today from the galaxy store had been removed. Many apps like Root Explorer and Pokemon Go had to go back though the process of accepting all of the permissions again. This will all happen each time after a reboot. The only Xposed mods I had installed was Flat Style Keyboard and App Settings for dpi change on the camera app after changing system dpi. I had disabled apps with Titanium Backup but then restored a good portion of them aside from ones like weather and the edge screen apps trying to see if one of those were needed to keep app setting. I have restored my phone to stock for now but any suggestions would be appreciated in case the problem comes up again or others are running into the same thing. (I will attach screen shots of the apps that were frozen with Titanium)

I removed Default Clock app...

So I have Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (G935F) and I really dislike all the bloatware Samsung puts on their devices.
So I installed Custom ROM to get rid of it. More specifically I installed Efficient ROM which let me choose which apps i want to have on my phone.
Being sick of preinstalled apps I selected all of them to not be installed. Along with default Clock App.
Which at first didn't bother me at all since I could install Google Clock app from the Play Store.
But my problem started when I wanted to use alarm feature. Though app is very well adopted by the system (the alarm icon even appears on the AOD which I did not expect), when I clean all open apps
it also shuts down my clock app. Which is really bothering me since Alarm does not work when app is not running.
I could just leave clock app opened in the apps menu, but it's annoying since I usually close the apps I don't currently use.
So my question is: What can I do to keep Google Clock running in the Background when i close it from recent apps? I have in mind feature that, for example, Facebook app has; that keeps you updated on notification even when you close it.
And that I don't forget to mention... There isn't any option to set Google clock as a default app on the default apps menu in settings.
I really don't want to flash ROM again just because of the stupid clock so if there is any solution I will be very grateful to share it with me.
I would guess use a Root Explorer and change it from a user app to a system app. I'm a Samsung noob, though, so I could be wrong.

OK i figured out that if I disable xposed, app stays opened. Anyone else experienced that issue with having xposed installed? I also find out that it's preventing Hangouts and several other apps to run in background as well, so I can't get any notifications.
You could install xposed (if not already done) and download an app called App Settings. There you can set the app to be permanently running and/or hide it from the recent apps list.
Also, I don't think making it a system app will change anything as system apps, with a few exceptions, can also be closed from the recent apps just like user apps.
Edit: Just read you have xposed already installed. So just do as I said first, this way you can continue using xposed aswell as the clock app.

Completely disable Recent apps

I would like to complete disable Recent apps functionality.
How to do it on rooted and nonrooted phone.
What i need is once i close an app it shouldn't reside in recent apps.
There's a 'Don't keep activities' tile in the Developer Settings. It works the same way.

Game Launcher - Hide games option gone in Oreo?

Has the new version of Game Launcher removed this option in Settings? It would basically auto hide any games from the App List automatically when a new game was downloaded. I found it very convenient and now being on OREO this option appears to have been removed. Yes, you have the option to manually hide any App you choose but the game launcher setting was automatic. Did the option move possibly?

I Think Yes...
I,m Also Facing The Same Problem.
