Running Services is essentially the same as running Apps - Apps that are running need to be using Services - You can also go to Settings - Battery & Look at the list of Apps that are using the Battery.
Then there is series security problem. I am trying wickr app and with the application closed I receive notifications of a message and I don't see the application process or app running.
It's probably just a notification that it was momentarily running in the background & I wouldn't be concerned about it - Google Messages Beta Test versions are also running in the background - But steadily it seems on the Betas. It's likely to be intended behaviour to check for new messages.
Wickr has a good reputation & other than RCS not being supported (afaik) - You'd have to be really paranoid to be crying "security problem" at every activity - Really don't know why you even use technology..
Hi SamSungtwo, Try Force Stopping the application which will kill all the services associated with it and observe if you are getting any notifications. If not, then there must be some service running under the hood when the application is closed normally.
hi keagan , if I stop the app it will not receive notifications. however I cannot identify the process when I close the wickr app. The app clearly closes and I cannot identify what is sending the notificationrelated to this app.
