App Cloner includes a navigation option called Minimize on Back, letting you control what happens when the Back button is pressed on the app’s main screen.
By default, Android finishes the app’s root activity when you press Back. While this doesn’t immediately kill the app’s process, it does terminate the activity instance. Relaunching the app starts it from scratch. Some apps restore their previous state well, others, like news apps, may need to reload everything.
When you enable the Minimize on Back option while cloning an app, pressing Back won’t finish the root activity. Instead, it moves the app to the background. This keeps the app exactly as you left it, just like switching between apps.
Note that this doesn’t guarantee the app’s process will stay alive indefinitely. For that, consider using the Persistent app option. Still, keeping an activity alive makes Android less likely to terminate the app, increasing the chances it stays in memory longer.
Some apps (like Firefox) already override the Back button to move themselves to the background. In such cases, this can prevent App Cloner options like Clear cache on exit from working correctly. To fix this, set Minimize on Back to Disabled when cloning, this forces the app to exit fully when Back is pressed, enabling options that rely on the app terminating.
