Network KeepAlive v1.1.2
Granite AppsAbout this app
Developer Description
Keep your internet connection active to prevent timeouts.
This can be very disruptive if you are not actively using your connection, but still want to receive email or other push notifications when they arrive.
This app will periodically download a tiny file to indicate that your connection is still active.
THIS WILL NOT RECONNECT YOU TO THE NETWORK IF YOU ARE DISCONNECTED.
THIS WILL NOT HELP IF THE NETWORK TIMES YOU OUT FOR ANOTHER REASON.
Some networks have timeouts that are not based on inactivity. They could log you out at preset times, or for meeting a threshold of use. This app will not work for those cases.

Network KeepAlive users say on Google Play
Every night I listen to Fox Radio and program an app to turn off after 90 minutes so I can sleep without worries but get cut off every couple of mins. I uninstalled all similar apps and kept only this one. Since then no more cut offs..
Hard to say if this app actually works or not. I experience frequent drops on my network, seemingly as a result of my VPN. That hasn't ceased since installing this app. But, this app could use a UI, with some options that can be setup. One, an option to launch the app in the background at boot, and an option to set the frequency of the keepalive signal. As it stands, this app is as bare bones as it gets. At least it doesn't have ads, is free, and doesn't require any unnecessary permissions. 👍
Pretty good it's working but it drains my battery faster and kills a bit of my ram but I still recommended this app if you have issues at always disconnected from network and I'm giving three Stars!
Is unstable, after some time it stops working
Phone has been having trouble staying connected to any mobile network. It says "emergency calls only" and refuses to pick signal back up. Downloaded this app and started it. It said "connecting" and stopped trying after 5 seconds. Still on emergency calls only. Doesnt do what it says it does.
