Notes:

  • Background tasks like RAM and battery will take up a device’s limited resources. So, the Android OS system will handle the task killer when memory is low and doesn’t allow you or app developers to control the background task killer. That’s why we can’t keep FlashGet Kids service permanently running in the background.
  • Besides, the following special cases can also cause a connection issue:
    • Device power-off.
    • FlashGet Kids for child has been uninstalled.
    • The network doesn’t work on the device.
