Leoric is a proof-of-concept Android library that demonstrates a technique for keeping an app process alive against force-stop kills on Android. It was tested on Android 9 and 10 and is rendered ineffective by Android 14's cgroup freezing before force-stop.

Use cases

  • keep android app process alive after force stop
  • study android process keep-alive techniques
  • protect background service from being killed on android
  • learn how android force-stop works internally
  • research android daemon process resurrection

When to choose

  • you are researching Android process management and force-stop internals
  • you need a reference implementation of process keep-alive tricks on Android 9/10

When to avoid

  • you target Android 14 or later, where the technique no longer works
  • you want production-ready keep-alive for a real app
  • you need a maintained, licensed library for commercial use
