Every time my phone gets connected to bluetooth speaker, messaging apps automatically come out of forced stop state and start running in the background.

Shouldn’t force stopping applications prevent them from any type of interaction/activity, and if not, why only 2 messaging apps, in this case, signal and telegram get reactivated and brought to background? Any ideas? Is this some sort of a bug, I’m on Android 13.

    Force stop is not a state. It’s an action, unless it’s some feature I don’t know about.

    Apps don’t have to actively listen to events. They can subscribe to broadcast and the OS will trigger the app whenever that occurs.
