Android Question "Kill" unused objects

How can I kill objects?
I will explain.
I am building an application based on one activity whose center is a panel to which I load the various screens.
For each screen I create the object that runs it.
When I load a screen, I remove the current screen
B4X: 
viewPnl.RemoveAllViews

but its object remains alive.
So after several times the app crashes from the next exception.
Downsampling image due to lack of memory.

I know I can create each object once and then display it over and over
but I have about 30 screens that most will rarely be used so I prefer not to waste memory.
What's the way to do that?
Attached is an example project

Objects are released when there are no live references to the objects. This will not happen immediately.

This code is bad:
B4X: 
Sub drawdiamond2(percent As Int, width As Float, height As Float,  R As Int, G As Int, B As Int) As B4XBitmap 'ignore
    Dim cnv As B4XCanvas
    Dim myimage As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")
    myimage.SetLayoutAnimated(0,0,0,width,height)
    cnv.Initialize(myimage)
You should instead create the canvas once and reuse it.

I fixed it.
The crash I'm talking about happens when you click too many times The buttons
then create multiple instances of each object and the app crashes
I saw that the main problem was homeScreen object when i created only him the aap crushed after 4 instances
the SetTime object it took 34 instances to crush with this log
