I recently (a few weeks ago) purchased a Nokia 6.1. I previously had a Samsung S7. I am using the same apps on the Nokia as I did on the Samsung. I have had quite a few apps that run some sort of background process and are now getting killed off regularly. I initially thought this may be related to the adaptive battery feature (New phone, so the machine learning behind this feature has to be 'trained'). After some experimentation, that didn't seem to be it. Although the apps I've seen affected are all over the board (system utilities, games, instant messaging), the most obvious one is a popular battery usage monitoring app. The app is designed to run in the background and record which apps are consuming the most battery. This app's background process (where all the work is done) is killed off after about 10-20 minutes. I can get it to resume if I open the UI again, but that defeats the purpose of the app if I have to constantly re-open the app.

So the pigs are "mostly dead"! There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive.
