An Android Java library that packages six different methods for detecting whether an app is in the foreground or background, exposed as a utility class. It includes techniques ranging from ActivityLifecycleCallbacks to reading /proc data, some of which can detect other apps' foreground state.

Use cases

  • detect if my android app is in foreground or background
  • check whether another app is running in the foreground on android
  • track app foreground state with activity lifecycle callbacks
  • get foreground app package name without permissions
  • compare methods for detecting android app background state

When to choose

  • you need a quick utility to know if your own app is foregrounded
  • you want to compare multiple foreground-detection strategies in one place
  • you need to detect other apps' foreground state on older Android versions

When to avoid

  • you target modern Android versions where most cross-app detection methods are blocked
  • you need a maintained, actively updated solution
  • you only need simple lifecycle tracking that ProcessLifecycleOwner already provides
