How to optimize apps

[Flintstone]

On my  xcover pro  if I go yo settings-> apps -

> : menu -> special access -> optimize battery usage 

A long list of apps appear that are not optimised. (74 apps at the moment ) 

How can I let my device optimize these apps? 

( all in one go or even app by app)

Hi @Flintstone 

If you want the apps you've found to be optimised then on my phone I can just hit the toggle.

i.e 

 

However I tend to let my phone do it's own thing unless a particular app is showing as not running correctly or using too much battery then I use sleep or deep sleep.

Not sure what do you mean by "hit the toggle" (I am not a native English speaker)

Hi @Flintstone 

By toggle I'm referring to the part next to the app shown in my attached picture.

If I tap on that then the slider moves across and optimises that particular app.

I thought that but when I first tried it did not work, now realised that some apps are in gray , tapping them does nothing, some are in black and they do disappear from the list (I use a light theme) list now down to 71 apps

Assuming the apps greyed out are not meant to be optimised @Flintstone

Hi, how do you find that menu? I can no longer find it.

This was posted nearly a year ago so with software update changes since posting certain options may have been removed by Samsung and replaced with another option in regards to various avenues to optomise.
