Reboot Tool Pro (Riboot)

Reboot to recovery, shut-down, restart, and simulated warm-boot.

Summary:

Simulated warm-boot without the need for root access: restarts foreground apps; kills non-persistent and non-service apps; restarts the launcher desktop; re-initializes all desktop widgets. Process manager: kill all; persistent white list; detailed information on each process. With root access: real warm-boot; reboot to recovery; shut-down. Also, it's just cool.

Can be set to activate upon: boot, screen on, screen off.

Target audience:

End-users, software developers.

Use cases:

Does your phone or tablet get sluggish by the end of the day? Do you open and close many apps during the day? Do you need to do a full restart of your device to increase speed again? Riboot may give improvements in your device speed without doing a full, time-consuming, restart.

Apps are killed instead of being cached in RAM. Because RAM (as opposed to "disk") requires a continuous refresh of battery power, removing the app from memory will extend battery life.

Developers may find the detailed information on each process helpful and interesting. If you have root access then the device can be restarted, rebooted to recovery, or shut-down.
