My Question or Issue

My phone tracks apps running in the background without my permission, so I can close any that I haven't asked to run & stop them wasting battery. I only use Spotify in the mornings and sometimes in the evenings, yet all day I get these notifications seemingly at random that the app decided to run & I have to force stop each time. This will happen 15+ times a day. Not connected to Wi-Fi, not listening to music, not even screen on and Spotify decides to run. Actually considering an automatic app killer to stop this BS.
