How this works?
In simple words, Greenify ‘hides’ applications so your phone can’t find them, for the period that the phone’s screen is off. This prevents android from opening the application. They can sometimes still be executed by other events though. This process saves your battery but also increase your phone performance by allowing more free ram.

Within the Google Play Store, we’re going to select the “Search Button” and type in “Greenify” to search Greenify App. It will show you two version of Greenify App, a paid version and a free one. I am using free version for this guide, So touch on free version and Install it.
Using Greenify App for battery saving.
Without further ado, let’s jump in to hibernating some apps. As you can see in above picture I have already selected some apps in Greenify. To add apps just touch on plus(+) icon in app and it will open “App Analyzer” screen. In “App Analyzer” It will show you app running in background or can slow down your Mobile.
Select apps you do not want to run in background, like above picture. Keep in mind do not select any app which you want running in background like WhatsApp, Facebook. Adding these in list you will not get any notification or updates without opening these apps.
After Selecting those app touch on action button (✓). It will add them to Greenify hibernate list. Now you can touch action button (Zzz)to manually hibernate all apps.
When you do it first time, it will show notification to enable accessibility setting. Touch on setting in notification and enable Greenify accessibility service.
