The power management features released in Android 9 (API level 28) affect all apps running on this version, whether the apps target this version or not. It's important to make sure your app behaves properly on these devices.

Test your app's main use cases under a variety of conditions to see how the power management features interact with each other. You can use[Android Debug Bridge (`adb`)](https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb)commands to turn some of the features on and off.

### Android Debug Bridge (adb) commands

You can use`adb`shell commands to test several of the power management features.

For information about using`adb`to put your device in Doze, see[Test with Doze and App Standby](https://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/doze-standby#testing_doze_and_app_standby).

#### App Standby Buckets

You can use`adb`to manually assign your app to an App Standby Bucket. To change an app's bucket, first simulate unplugging the device using the following command:  

```
$ adb shell dumpsys battery unplug
```

Use the following command to assign your app to a standby bucket:  

```
$ adb shell am set-standby-bucket <var translate="no">packagename</var> active|working_set|frequent|rare
```

You can also use the preceding command to set multiple packages at once:  

```
$ adb shell am set-standby-bucket <var translate="no">package1</var> <var translate="no">bucket1</var> <var translate="no">package2</var> <var translate="no">bucket2</var>...
```

To check what bucket an app is in, run the following:  

```
$ adb shell am get-standby-bucket <var translate="no">packagename</var>
```

If you don't pass a<var translate="no">packagename</var>parameter, the command lists the buckets for all apps. An app can also find out its bucket at runtime by calling the new method[`UsageStatsManager.getAppStandbyBucket()`](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/usage/UsageStatsManager#getAppStandbyBucket()).

#### Background restrictions

To manually apply background restrictions, run the following command:  

```
$ adb shell cmd appops set <var translate="no">packagename</var> RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND ignore
```

To remove background restrictions, run the following command:  

```
$ adb shell cmd appops set <var translate="no">packagename</var> RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND allow
```

#### Battery saver

There are several commands to test how your app behaves in low-power conditions.
| **Note:** You can also use the device**Settings \> Battery saver**screen to put the device in battery saver mode.

To simulate the device being unplugged, use the following command:  

```
$ adb shell dumpsys battery unplug
```

To test how the device behaves under low power conditions, use the following command:  

```
$ adb shell settings put global low_power 1
```

After you finish testing, you can undo your manual device settings with the following command:  

```
$ adb shell dumpsys battery reset
```
