my tablet automatically switches to "always on" setting, even if i switch to "off" because always on drains battery. I need an app to block ability to stay in the off position

Welcome to Android Central! Does this also happen in Safe Mode?

That's a six year old tablet so it's likely the battery is just too dated now to be able to hold a charge like it used to. Disabling various background services might help a bit but don't expect doing so will result in a significant change in power savings.

re: How can I disable "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep?"
At this time i want to thank everyone who is trying to help me with my issue. So far under developer i have ...under apps section : kill process and cellular data on. As well as window animation 1x ..
iam dismayed that that link to my tablet said this model is discontinued. Well, time to start saving for a new one

It's rare to find a tablet these days that's supported beyond 2 years. Samsung does better than everyone else, with their recent updated policy being 4 years of security updates for flagship tablets (like the Tab S6 and Tab S7): https://www.sammobile.com/news/samsung-galaxy-4-year-software-update-policy-explains/. But your device is 6 years old, so it is totally normal for it to be no longer supported. (Heck, even Google's own Pixel devices lose support after 3 years.)

As a workaround, what if you turn on Airplane Mode overnight (or whenever you're not planning to use the tablet)?

I tried that, nada. I usually just turn it off completely. I will have to bear with it until get another tablet. I want to try hyundai brand, its at target.

Two things.
First it sounds like you are wanting to leave it in sleep mode for extended periods of time so why not just just plug it in so that it stays powered?
Second if we're talking about a tablet that doesn't have its own data access without WiFi, what is the purpose of keeping it on when not in use? With no data and no WiFi it can't be getting notifications or updates, and not to sound course, but at that point its on just to be on.

Are you saying that wi-fi still comes on even in Airplane Mode? That's not supposed to happen.

Inquiry about tablet and "wifi always on" issue
i vaguely recall i posted a thread about this issue....but there has to be like an app in the google playstore or even an apk file where it can prevent device from automatically switching back to wifi default "keep wifi on during sleep" because my tablet is an old outdated asus zenpad 8.0 model, it reboots most of the time running android 7. Everytime have to manually switch it back to "never" if the wifi mode is turned on, it will drain the battery signifigantly!

Re: Inquiry about tablet and "wifi always on" issue
I merged your post into that other thread you had created before.
Does this happen in Safe Mode as well? https://safemodewiki.com/guides/how-to-boot-into-safe-mode-on-asus-zenpad-8-0-z380kl/
Also, are you powering the tablet down every night?

And are you powering down the tablet every night, or just leaving it on (but with the screen asleep)?
