Doze Question

[Wildo6882]

So I turned off battery optimization on a few apps that I always want to be notified from, so I would still be notified from them during doze. I left my phone sitting for a few hours tonight while I watched a baseball game. When I picked my phone back up, it exploded with notifications. Including ones on my not optimized list. Is this how it's supposed to work? Or is something not working right?

TBH I don't even know what doze is

Doze has never stopped notifications, that I have noticed. Try resetting your battery optimisation and starting again.

To check Doze is working, leave the phone for a while and check the battery usage when at rest. It should have a nice flat line in the battery stats representing only a few % loss overnight for instance. Having said that, I don't think my 10 is as efficient with Doze as some past phones I've had. My Nexus 5x and SG7E (sorry for mentioning that one!!!) Lost 5% or less overnight, I've never had so little from the 10.

I left it sitting today for awhile too and it still stopped some notifications from coming through even though they were set to not be optimized. Also, didn't see a flat line or anything.

I reset my optimized apps and rebooted the phone. I'll see how it does later tonight.
