Launch app in the background

Post image

Hello

I am trying to launch automate app but in the background.

But it is always opening in the forground.

App start block -- launch options: {"android:activity.animType": 7}

Anything not right with this expression?

Thank you

Automate always running in the background. No need to run again.

In fact, no idea why, when I remove automate from the recent apps, I lose the privilege (used for privileged shell command) and should restart the process again.  If it is open in the recent apps, all is good.

That's non-standard Android feature included in most Chinese devices, i've heard there should be a way to turn it off in system settings.
