@ohos.app.ability.appManager (appManager)

The appManager module implements application management. You can use the APIs of this module to query whether the application is undergoing a stability test, whether the application is running on a RAM constrained device, the memory size of the application, and information about the running process.

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 9. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
