Android vital is showing that our app is in bottom quartile for Excessive network usage (background). I figured that android is counting audio streaming as background network usage even when it's running as a foreground service. There is note to move network usage to foreground in android documentation(https://developer.android.com/topic/performance/vitals/bg-network-usage) but we already run media player as foreground service.
I would like to know if it's normal for music & audio apps which are used heavily. If not how can we move the data usage in foreground. How does this affect the play store ranking ?
