I have a Redmi Note 8 Pro.
Now, let me clarify. Whenever I am off an ap for like 5 seconds, literally, it closes. Not pauses, as in restarts when I change back to it again, but closes that it’s not in my recents anymore. This is getting to the point where after a while, Spotify WITH MUSIC PLAYING would close. It won’t allow me to have more than like 4 apps running, after which it would start closing the apps. How do I fix this?
Try modify the saving battery options from Settings, and also turn the app on at startup.
Maybe on the developer options u chose 4 processes apps max running only
What the other comment said, plus check if there are any apps and services like antivirus, Windows Your Phone, etc running in the background. For something like Spotify,you can go into running apps, press and hold on the app until some icons come up, then click the lock to prevent miui from closing it.
Ya I’m not going to lock every single app I open
And I have to do that for every single app?
I think so. If not try a reset or see if your MiUi version has some bugs related with this. Also check again your battery Settings and see if u can change some battery optimisation settings and disable them.
