## What it is
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

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: developer-tools, sdk
- domain: android-tools, mobile-development, developer-tools
- platform: jvm
- tags: foreground-detection, background-detection, app-state, activity-lifecycle, usagestats, android
