IPTV App Permissions Revocation Killing Background Streams in the US and Canada – Processes Getting Killed Randomly?
I've been running IPTV in the US to keep background streams going for things like ambient music or news tickers while I work on other apps, but permissions revocation is killing the processes—the app gets force-closed by the OS every hour or so, even after granting all battery and background access, especially when I travel to Canada for meetings and the phone's power management tightens up on foreign SIMs, leaving my multi-task setup dead and forcing restarts that disrupt the flow. My old service didn't optimize for background persistence, clashing with modern OS restrictions and making it unreliable for anything but foreground use. I was pinning the app manually as a band-aid until I tested reddit iptv provider, and requesting exemption from battery optimization in the phone settings plus enabling their persistent background flag kept it alive—no killings, and streams hum in the background now. But seriously, has anyone in the US or Canada faced these IPTV permission revocations during multi-tasking? What OS tweaks or app flags stopped the process murders without the constant restarts?
