The launch-time 'Disable Battery Optimization' dialog re-appeared on every start (no persistence) and its message was misleading. Investigation showed the exemption is not actually needed: playback runs on a doze-exempt foreground service, and Follow Me is motion-gated (a room change is motion, which takes the device out of doze so isDeviceIdleMode is false and scanning runs). Only marginal background-reconnect reliability during long deep-doze benefits.
So: removed checkBatteryOptimization()/the dialog from MainActivity (no more nag), and added an optional, honest toggle under Settings > Diagnostics that shows the current state and launches the system exemption request for power users who still want it. Copy no longer claims 'Android may stop playback'.
