These days, I don't think phones even turn off completely. Closing to sleeping. And only a portion of background services will stop and restart.
Try holding your power button for a bit of time or letting your battery run down. Phones absolutely turn off
What I’m saying is - even though it says “shut down”, it’s not doing a real shut down. Yes, you could fully let the battery run dry. But that takes 12 hours and you can’t do it once a day. Plus it ruins your battery’s capacity.
It doesn't seem like a hibernate though - it always has to reload the homescreen and doesn't remember processes from before the reboot and sk on.
What are you saying it does instead, if it's not a real shut down? What is it about it that makes it not a real shutdown? As compared to a computer shutdown.
You are saying when you select power off on your phone that it still stays running and doing things? What versions of what phones and since when?
I think this might be true for iOS, isn't the case on Android. Android phones still fully shut down in the traditional sense.
