Most of the apps will get (force) closed when cleared from recents. Only those with background services need actual "force close" button press. As advised, Greenify might accomplish what you're looking for.

Greenify is completely automated and done in the background. You can set whatever apps you want to close whenever you want.
I don't know of anything else that is as effective as it.
Also I wouldn't really be using these anymore as Android is more than capable of ram management.
Spare ram is wasted ram

Well, that's the risk you take. Most of the killed apps will re-launch themselves automatically, either right away or after a while, when they receive corresponding event/broadcast message. You did not specify why do you want to kill apps in the first place, but generic approach:
1. Greenify (link) - it will kill an app AND prevents automatic restart of an app (doesn't work at 100% though)
2. Disable specific service of an app, so it won't keep restarting (app might be unstable - crash)
3. Uninstall the app and find a better alternative which isn't always running

That is not true. It is possible to hibernate Playservices. I have done it and no problems for the last three months. However I don't use Whatsapp or Facebook so no idea about effect on them.
You simply select 'ignore state for hibernation'.

Lucky for you, I experience multiple errors including play store unable to detect a network connection, apps won't allow me to purchase something (probably to the connection problem) and worse of all battery draining.
I also got those issues when I tried to cut off the links in Playservices and Playstore. I even got random reboots though no battery drain.
But now I do not touch the links, merely greenify these two ignoring their state.
May be you can try this?

What do you mean by "safely"?
Better to change the options in Gmail.
I find that apps like Spotify or other music apps get killed after a while even if they are the only open app. Many apps that create notification for persistence also get killed very quickly on MIUI. e.g. Wakey to keep screen on gets killed to.
Is there a way to fix this?
Give them a lock in recent apps or you go to security center look for Autostart and choose your application. This helped for me

Even if I have exactly done what you have suggested, some of my apps keep being shut down for no obvious reasons.
I am on the latest weekly developers rom by the way.
Go to Settings->Additional Settings->Battery & Performance->Manage app's and battery usage->Choose app's to restrict. Try it out maybe it works for you. If not I got no solution anymore if you find out an other method pls say it to me!

Tried that for the constantly closing 2 apps but still getting shut downs.
I froze as many system apps as I could to free some ram and also disabled ram management from developer's options.
first of all - amazing app!!
I have one question, maybe I got it completely wrong ...
If I hibernate an app, and restart it later again, e.g using the recent key, shouldn't the app state also be restored??
e.g. I use root explorer and navigate to a folder, then press the home key. When I get back to the application ( not using greenify) I will see the same folder that I was in before (if LMK did not kill my app of course).
But when the app was hibernated (greenifed), it always starts up "fresh"... Is this intended??
Galaxy s6, android 5.0.2 rooted
The app is stopped so is normal. Btw in Root Explorer is an option to restore your last working folder, check it if you want to go back to your folder.

Root explorer was just an example. So it is not exactly the iOS feeling that an application is stopped in background and resumed afterwards...
Which means, that I should not greenify apps that I want to go back later on using the recent key - because I will get a reload of the whole app which makes the 3 Gigs of RAM completely useless ... Is this correct??
So people who greenify everything will get a bad user experience, at least on the apps they use many a time....
A little disappointing but still a great app.

That is how the app is designed. You are not supposed to Greenify every app especially those you use frequently. That will consume more battery. This is stated in the OP of the main thread by the Dev himself and repeated many times in many sub-threads.
Makes sense.

I believe the closest equivalent of the IOS behavior that you are looking for is generated through Doze, a function implemented in Android phones with Marshmallows. For a more aggressive Doze behavior, you can use greenify. And if you don't have marshmallow on your phone, I believe there is a dedicated Doze app on the play store

Ok thank you. I assume the app you are taking about is shutApp... The doze app (same developer) just cuts off the network activity using a dead VPN connection. I will try shutApp on my device phone, but for now I am happy with greenify, it works great except for Chrome and YouTube... Thanks for your help..

You may try the new experimental feature - "Shallow Hibernation" if your device is running Android 6.0 and rooted. It preserves the app running context even in hibernation.

Hello and welcome to XDA Q&A section of the Forum.
If you have the XPosed framework installed you can downlaod and install a module called "Greenify". It lets you force close apps after not using them and put them into a mode called "hibernation". This module also has a feature that lets you pick the apps you don't want hibernating.
Hope that solves your issue and hit "thanks" if I did

Hello again!
Well, I am sorry to hear that, I have now no clue how to fix it. Hopefully, you'll do it
Greenify can't auto hibernate apps in Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 running the latest Miui version 9.2.1.0 (details attached in screenshot below).Even after granting all the permissions, Greenify fails to click the force stop button & no apps are hibernated.
This is a major bug and leaves Greenify completely non functional in non rooted phones.
This issue must be fixed ASAP!

Not sure of your expectations or what you are trying to show with the video. Greenify does not remove apps from storage nor immediately reduce their memory footprint (although they may happen over time due to normal LMK behavior). It's singular purpose is to block unwanted background behavior without crushing functionality.
While you may have indeed identified a new 'bug' a single data point (your device) does not necessarily extend to all devices and configs - rooted or otherwise.

Yes brother.I know that Greenify doesn't remove apps from storage but what I'm trying to show here is that when you click on Hibernate Now, Greenify force closes the apps but in this case it fails to do the same.I am not the sole user facing this issue.
This problem has popped up after the latest miui update.
Thanks again

Appreciate the clarification (might want to shorten and/or annotate the video). So you claim the "problem" is related to the latest miui update but then extend the claim to all unrooted phones and demand Greenify "revert" ... to what?
I do see others raising issues with accessibility based functionality and there may indeed be a link. So far none have stated Greenify flat out does not work, only that automatic hibernation doesn't take place the screen is turned off.
Let's see how this plays out as more reports filter in.

Yes!You are correct.In a nutshell with the latest Miui Update (9.2) , Greenify doesn't hibernate the apps after screen lock even after being granted all the required permissions.
This happens in non-rooted devices
Hope that we will find a fix soon
Thanks a lot!

Turn Off MIUI Optimisation
I had same problem on my Mi Max 2 after MIUI update. To solve it just disable MIUI optimization under developer settings and reboot, Greenify will work again as it used to work before MIUI update.

Me and others in MIUI forums had the same problem with only USB debugging turned on, this is what solved it:
Turn on the following option:
USB debugging -Debug mode when USB is connected
Install via USB -Allow installing apps via USB
USB debugging (Security Settings)- Allow granting permissions and simulating input via USB debugging
It's very simple
1 . Turn off miui optimisation under developer settings
2 . Turn on " FORCE ALLOW apps on external "under
developer settings.

I think this will surely fix your problem.
I'm on xiaomi redmi note 5 pro (india) with miui 10.0.1
0. I'm having the same issue that greenify is not at all able to click the force stop option in the app page in the settings. This renders greenify completely useless in my device, since hibernation isn't working at all. I've been using greenify from last 5 years, and never faced an issue until now.

I really don't understand why you are using Greenify to go to an app and click force stop ... Why not just go directly to the MIUI settings and force stop it there ?
Anyway, on all my 4 Xiaomis, with the latest and greatest MIUI 10 8.9.2 Developer ROM as at this date, Greenify works perfectly.
Apps under Hibernation are as expected when viewed from the MIUI Settings, they are already Force Closed (Force Close button greyed out), with the Uninstall button available (not greyed out).
Under MIUI Settings, apps under Shallow Hibernation are not Force Closed, and clicking on the button Force Close will force close it and the button becomes greyed out, and after that, the Uninstall button will be ungreyed and available. When you go back to Greenify, the previously shallow hibernated app that was force closed is now under the section of the normal hibernation, no longer under shallow hibernation.
All fine on my side, MM and Nougat Xiaomis, I don't know about Oreo. I think Greenify is still needed for Xiaomi with Oreo, since Xiaomi seems to walk a different path than the others.

I have over 200 apps in my phone. So there are a lot of apps that need to be 'greenified'. And I've noticed that if you go into developer settings and disable 'miui optimisations', then greenify works perfectly. But for the rest, even if the app is open in the background and you select the option to hibernate it, the force close button is greyed out and nothing happens

Oh, yes, I forgot, of course I have MIUI OPtimizations disabled, always, less problems for me. All rooted too, with Greenify4Magisk, and some module to allow Play Services to be dozed.
Well, if an app cannot be force closed in the MIUI settings, then it is something else preventing it from being closed, and Greenify cannot override it. Gboard (Google Keyboard if used) I think is an example, if I remember. Only a few, and system apps which I would not touch anyway. I don't greenify important user message apps like Messenger or Whatsapp, though, I also Whitelist them from deep doze, just playing safe.
Excluding system apps, I have only a few user apps, less than 40 for sure. All greenified except a few I don't want greenified. As for system apps,
I froze many of them that I will never use and safe to freeze of course, surely stronger than doze or hibernate.

Ridiculous and counterproductive greenifying a huge app suite. Focus on those that demonstrate bad behaviors; ignore the rest.
