Hmm, quite difficult to take a screenshot, as I can't find another app on my device which wakes up other apps as I have already cut off all such apps.

Try the following steps:

1. Open an app of which you know that it wakes up FB.
2. Close this app or go back to your homescreen.
3. Open Greenify and go to the section, where all apps that are greenified are shown (not the section where you can add apps to be greenified!) -> should be start page by default.
4. Now you should see that the app you have opened is running, but also FB, which has been woken up by this app.
5. Long press on the FB entry.
6. Now the scissor symbol should appear in the action bar and you can prevent FB from being woken up.

I have tried this but the scissor does not appear and most of the apps iHave wake up by them self like whatsapp or facebookOr messenger what can ido to stop them

Ungreenify them, as the constant hibernate-wakeup causes more drain than you will be able to save. For FB Messenger, use some lightweight alternatives such as FB Lite (as long as you don't care about chat heads).

I don't greenify Whatsapp, as it's drain is quite okay, no more heavy drain as it has been in the past.

In the section titled "will hibernate soon after screen goes off" you should see a list of woken apps along with the reason (trigger) below in smaller font. Tap (not long press) the item in question; a scissors iron should appear in the top bar.

Tested using v3.0B2 on rooted lollipop. YMMV.

I dont even see wakeup tracker info under app name. There are no scissors either. Wake up tracker is turned on in settings. Tried reinstalling, wiping cache & data. Using donation version on S5 Thunderbolt 4.5 Rom.
Any ideas why there is no wake up tracker info and scisors?

EDIT: Ignore this, I found a similar topic

Would you mind to share? I'm in a custom rom and after updating to latest version I'm not able to see scissors anymore.
Thanks.

    If you highlight FB on Greenify there should appear a scissors icon on the top left.

    Ah, yes. This was the option I was looking for. Thank you :)

    For other users facing the same problem: selecting the app that has been woken up (still running, not yet greenified) by long-press -> clicking on the appearing scissor symbol in the action bar will open a pop up notification where you have to confirm you want to prevent this greenified app from being woken up by other apps.

    thanks, but see SS no scissor sign :(

    Just select the apps woken by others, not long pressing.
    The wake-up cutoff also works in root mode since Android 4.4 (Both Xposed and donation package are not required).
