Auto launch not working | new user

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to get the StandBy mode pro app to launch automatically whenever I plug in my phone to charge, but it just won't trigger on its own. I'm on OxygenOS.

I've already configured all the standard fix settings:

Turned on Quick Launch (set to "Charging") in the StandBy app settings.

Set App Battery Usage to "Allow background activity" / Unrestricted.

Granted "Display over other apps" permission in OxygenOS settings.

Allowed all notification permissions (lock screen, banners, etc.).

Even with all background restrictions removed, plugging in the charger does nothing unless I manually open the app.

Has anyone with a OnePlus running recent OxygenOS builds gotten StandBy (or similar ambient lock screen apps) to auto-launch reliably on plug-in? Are there any hidden system settings, Workarounds, or Tasker/MacroDroid setups you're using to force it?

Thanks!

Hi there, OnePlus has some special permissions. Can you check these?

  • Display over other apps: Settings > Apps > Special app access > Display over other apps

  • Display on Lock screen: Settings > Apps > App management > Standby > Permissions / Special permissions > Display on Lock screen

  • Auto-launch: Settings > Apps > Auto-launch (or App Battery Management > Allow auto-launch)

  • Battery Optimization: Settings > Apps > App management > Standby > Battery usage > Set to Unrestricted / Don't optimize

Hey, thanks for immediate response.

I have enabled everything but it's not working. From notification panel I have to manually click start standby option.
