This Android permission permits an utility to robotically begin after the machine has accomplished its startup sequence. When granted, the appliance is notified through a broadcast intent because the system finishes booting. A sensible instance contains an alarm utility that should re-establish its scheduled alarms following a tool restart.
The performance conferred by this permission is significant for purposes requiring persistent background processes or time-sensitive operations initiated at boot. Traditionally, this functionality enabled important system companies to perform reliably after sudden shutdowns. Misuse of this permission, nonetheless, can result in elevated machine startup instances and pointless useful resource consumption, prompting stricter controls in later Android variations.
