Android 12 will automatically revoke permissions and clean up the cache

As early as the Android 11 period, Google has introduced the “automatically revoke related permissions” feature for apps that have not been used for a long time. If you have not used a certain App for two consecutive months, the system will automatically revoke all its permissions. However, the latest research by XDA-Developers found that Android 12 further expands this experience to automatically hibernate those idle apps.

It is reported that XDA-Developers has enabled the leaked version of Android 12’s “Auto Sleep” function through a special method. It is known that in addition to automatically revoking the related permissions of idle apps, the Android 12 mobile operating system will automatically hibernate it and clean up any temporary files related to it.

Obviously, this move will help free up valuable storage space on mobile devices, especially those apps that are not used for a long time but generate a lot of temporary files. Interested friends, you can try to find this option on the “Settings -> Applications -> Unused Apps” page. The option that originally displayed “Automatically revoke permissions” has become “Clean up permissions and release space.”
