Notes

  • If the “Turn on MIUI optimization” option has been enabled, please disable it. (Head over to “Settings” > “Additional settings” > “Developer options” > “Turn on MIUI optimization.”)
  • 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 for child service permanently running in the background.
  • Besides, the following special cases can also cause a connection issue:
    • Device power-off.
    • FlashGet Kids has been uninstalled.
    • The network doesn’t work on the device.
