Job cancels upon app exit or phone reboot

I know someone has asked this before, but I still think it is a bug.

I want to run a Job once a day. The job includes the logic to do a query and then show a notification window to the user. I use the following in my presenter.

  new JobRequest.Builder(TAG)
     .setPeriodic(getReminderInterval())
     .setPersisted(true)
     .setUpdateCurrent(true)
     .setExtras(args)
     .build()
     .schedule();

I found that unless my app is running or in the background, the job gets cancelled, which is pretty likely. So the following scenarios causes the job to cancel:

1/ user swipe away the app in Recents 2/ user backgrounds the app and restarts the phone

What’s the proper way of using this library so that I can in fact execute some code on a daily basis as the FAQ suggest?

No, it’s decided at runtime.

AlarmManager runs in background even app is killed from recent history.
