Trickle works by watching your device's screen when it turns ON and OFF.
When the screen turns OFF, Trickle places your device into the low powered
Battery Saver
system mode, which affects the entire device and is a standard
Android OS feature. When the screen turns ON, Trickle moves your device back into
the "normal" operating mode so that you can see things like notifications and
background alerts.
Enabling the Always Alive
option allows this screen on-off watching service to run
all the time. This can help save battery in the long run, because Trickle
can place your device into the Battery-Saver
system mode when the screen is
off.
Without this option, Trickle can be stopped by the phone's system at any time - even when the screen is off. This could mean that your battery is not being saved as much because Trickle is not around to help you. It could also leave your device in the low-power mode if Trickle stops "in the middle" of changing from one mode to the other.
