### Android Battery Optimization
To ensure Pangolin functions correctly in the background on Android devices, it's recommended to disable battery optimization for the app. This prevents the operating system from restricting its background activities, which could lead to disconnections.
1. Open the **Settings** app on your Android device.
2. Navigate to **Apps & notifications** (or simply **Apps** on some devices).
3. Find and select the Pangolin app from the list of installed apps.
4. Tap on **App battery usage**.
5. Select **Allow background usage** and enable if disabled.
6. From the options menu, choose **Unrestricted**.
