How to move an Android App in Auto Start List of Mi Note3, so it receives Push even app is closed

Question

I am working on an android app and from last 2 weeks i am facing a issue in MI Phones that they don't receive Push Notification when application is in Background State or Inactive State. This is working great in other devices like samsung, micromax etc.

At last i solve it by Moving My application in Auto Start Mode through Device Permission Section

Security -> Permission Section -> Auto Start -> MY_APP -> Mark Toggle to On.

When i follow above steps i found that Facebook and whatsapp are already in AutoStart List, means it is possible to move an android application in AutoStart by code.

So can anybody please help me with some piece of code or Tutorials which i can follow to solve this issue.

You can use cordova-plugin-autostart by enabling autostart after boot

cordova.plugins.autoStart.enable();

If enabled is not called, then by default it will be disabled

cordova.plugins.autoStart.disable();

In the config.xml the following needs to be added

<gap:plugin platform="android" name="cordova-plugin-autostart" version="2.0.1" source="npm"/>

NOTE: Installation to the SD card will prevent the automatic start of your app after the boot
