@Rutti: No problem. If you head to Settings > Device Care > Battery > Tap the 3 dots in the top right > Settings > Sleeping Apps, you'll be able to remove any apps from their slumber. You can also toggle off 'Put Unused Apps to Sleep' and 'Auto Disable Unused Apps' to prevent the phone from disabling apps automatically. I hope this helps.

@Bog G: It is possible to remove apps from the Sleeping and Deep Sleeping apps categories by heading to Settings > Device care > Battery > Background usage limits > Select 'Sleeping apps' > Press and hold on an app, then tap on any others you'd like to remove > Select 'Remove' at the bottom of the screen. Alternatively, tap the 3 dots in the top right of the Sleeping or Deep Sleeping apps screen > Remove, then follow the steps above.
