This behavior can be reproduced by this sample app:

https://github.com/commonsguy/cw-omnibus/tree/master/AlarmManager/AntiDoze

It appears as though the Settings app is caching the "Not Optimized" list and not refreshing it as needed. Once I get into the state where the Settings app fails to report my app as being not optimized, if I swipe the Settings app off the overview screen and run it again, the list reflects the current state accurately.

Hi,
We have passed this defect on to the development team and will update this issue with more information as it becomes available.
Thanks

For anyone tempted to use android.permission.REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS and ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS, beware !

Google is monitoring apps that require this permission and can suspend it if they think said app should not use it:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33114063/how-do-i-properly-fire-action-request-ignore-battery-optimizations-intent

An arbitrary slippery slope not mentioned in the documentation.

There has been no activity on this issue since November; is there any update?

I am also noticing that on Nexus devices the ACTION_REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATIONS intent does not result in any prompt being shown if the package is not the app that made the request.

If I run the same code on Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge then I am able to show the system prompt for any package (even ones that are not the currently running app).

I am still having this issue. Android 9.

1. Install app.

3. Check Battery Optimization in the program. Showed Not optimized.
4. Uninstall the app and install again.
5. Check Battery Optimization in the program. Showed optimized.
6. Go to Setting. the app's battery optimization is disabled.

Still having this problem on Galaxy S21 Ultra

Yes, still broken on Galaxy S20 FE too, six years later. Maybe worth spending ten minutes trying to find the issue, despite the OP not having attached the "bug report"? The bug doesn't go away just because the bug report isn't 100 % complete :)
