The essence of this option is - the uncontrolled access to the Internet, ie, without user intervention. It allows you to communicate with the servers, including for notifications, updates, weather data, check for updates, reconciliation time, etc. etc. In addition, applications are also malware-injected uncontrolled advertising transmitted to their owners some data for "analysts" and "improvement".
How it works
While the application is on the screen - it will work properly: data upload, download, update, etc. As soon as the phone will go into sleep mode, or the screen will be loaded another application - will become effective option "Background connect ', and if it is disabled - Android disable it to access the Internet.
