Hello some comments: > 2) If someone uses force stop they should already acknowledge that some information might be lost.
The user doesn't know about this, there isn't any sign or warning when pressing that button. And also our apps doesn't know too. ;) > Whenever your app is in the background, the system may freely kills its process as it wishes, when it wishes, without giving you a chance to clean up. That's just how it works. I think this is the point, normally when our application needs to be destroyed in order to release memory, or it's in a lower priority then onDestroy() is called. With this "Force Stop" stuff not, there isn't any way to be aware about our threads and tasks to be killed.
