Alarm gone after swiping an app from recent apps

On my device(LeTv One/Android 6):

1. I scheduling new job
2. check active alarms via adb shell dumpsys alarm
3. see such intents:

Batch{7fae56f num=1 leuiTimeAlign=false start=1483824064305 end=1483824064305}:
    RTC_WAKEUP #0: Alarm{a95b27c type 0 when 2967563176917 red.kometa.steelsunset}
      tag=*walarm*:red.kometa.steelsunset/com.evernote.android.job.v14.PlatformAlarmReceiver
      type=0 whenElapsed=+17173d9h41m15s838ms when=2064-01-14 22:06:16
      window=0 repeatInterval=0 count=0 flags=0x0
      operation=PendingIntent{edbf82e: PendingIntentRecord{cedbf73 red.kometa.steelsunset broadcastIntent key.isShadow:false}}
Batch{606f705 num=1 leuiTimeAlign=false start=1483841004908 end=1483841004908}:
    RTC_WAKEUP #0: Alarm{318e35a type 0 when 2967580117519 red.kometa.steelsunset}
      tag=*walarm*:red.kometa.steelsunset/com.evernote.android.job.v14.PlatformAlarmReceiver
      type=0 whenElapsed=+17173d14h23m36s441ms when=2064-01-15 02:48:37
      window=0 repeatInterval=0 count=0 flags=0x0
      operation=PendingIntent{db939e0: PendingIntentRecord{ff45b9d red.kometa.steelsunset broadcastIntent key.isShadow:false}}

1. close app via swiping it from recent apps
2. check active alarms via adb shell dumpsys alarm
3. scheduled Intents are gone

The same situation with AlarmManager: stackoverflow

Some other apps from google play schedule their notifications without any problems. What’s the trick? Is it expected behavior?

I would like to comment and say this - I’ve tried to schedule a Service class using Android’s AlarmManager but it failed miserably.

After switching for a Service to a BroadcastReceiver it did work. I’m not sure what’s the specific reason but I want to think that maybe the service is running in the background and therefore AlarmManager doesn’t start another instance of the service.

Here’s my current, working, code -

        Intent serviceIntent = new Intent(this, <BroadcastReceiver>.class);
        PendingIntent pendingIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, serviceIntent, 0);
        AlarmManager alarm = (AlarmManager) getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE);
        alarm.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis(), 1000*60, pendingIntent);

This will send a broadcast every minute.

Say, I have a similar issue with AlarmManager. On Pixel 4 (or emulator) with Android 10 (or 11), I schedule it, remove from recent tasks and then it never gets triggered. How come? I reported about this to Google because to me it seems like a bug:

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/149556385

But as opposed to what’s written here, I don’t directly open a service, but open a broadcast receiver instead.

I’ve read the entire post, and I still don’t get how to fix it. Can anyone helpe?
