Freeze an app with a different method when holding the freeze button #1449
Comments
So your feature request is :
Note 1 : If you choose one of the "freezing method chip" by long clicking Freeze (doesn't matter if you create shortcut or not) then it would remember the method. So if you close the dialog and simply single-click "Freeze" it'll use user preferred freezing method. This feature request is similar to how we've freedom of individual configuration for "IFW+Dis, IFW, Dis" component blocking methods, overriding Default options. Note 2 : Similar to #1201, we already show the correct "Freezing status Tag" for individual apps. |
I've been thinking about this feature myself for quite some time. The problem is the long-click option has already been used for creating shortcuts. I cannot think of a good way to offer both features at the same time. |
This could be problematic though. Because unless there's a way to report to the user about the freezing method used for the app, it might be difficult for them to figure out (in advance) which freezing method is going to be used for this particular app (since we don't expect them to remember the last used freezing method for an app). But, there are also some benefits, especially for batch operations and profiles. |
Yes I agree. I thought "Hit-and-Trial" method shouldn't be a problem as you don't lose any data with any of the freezing method. [From my previous comment
] i. (a) Just click Freeze to check what tag appears on Horizontal action panel. If it's different than your intended method, simply unfreeze and (b) Long click to view/change which chip used for the freezing method. |
That would be a different but related feature request...

Limitation of my Freeze" batch operations proposal : Suppose you want to use Suspend (which is not your default freezing method) + User preferred method. Then it's not possible with current proposal. Edit: Sorry, use chips for Suspend/Disable/Hide. This way you'll have the freedom to do
|
Technically, if an app is frozen with any methods, it needs to be unfrozen again before applying any other method. Because App Manager will freeze again with the new method without checking whether it was frozen before. This is because App Manager does not know if it was previously frozen with App Manager (the system does not supply a timestamp for these operations). |
Please check before submitting an issue
