官方文件：

系统区分前台和后台应用程序。(用于服务限制的后台定义与内存管理使用的定义不同;一个应用程序可能在后台的内存管理，但在前台的能力，启动服务。)一个应用程序被认为是在前台，如果以下任何一个是真的:

它有一个可见的活动，无论该活动是启动还是暂停。 它有一个前台服务。 另一个前台应用通过绑定到它的一个服务或使用它的一个内容提供者来连接到该应用。例如，如果另一个应用绑定到它的: 输入法设置 壁纸服务 通知侦听器 语音或文字服务

如果这些条件都不为真，应用程序被认为是在后台。

我想出的最好的解决办法是使用计时器。

你已经在onPause()中启动了一个定时器，并在onResume()中取消了相同的定时器，有一个定时器的实例(通常在应用程序类中定义)。计时器本身被设置为在2秒后(或您认为合适的任何时间间隔)运行Runnable，当计时器触发时，您设置一个标志，将应用程序标记为在后台。

在取消定时器之前的onResume()方法中，您可以查询后台标志来执行任何启动操作(例如开始下载或启用位置服务)。

这个解决方案允许您在back堆栈上有几个活动，并且不需要任何权限来实现。

如果你也使用事件总线，这个解决方案也很有效，因为你的计时器可以简单地触发一个事件，应用程序的各个部分可以相应地做出响应。

如果你打开开发人员设置“不要保留活动”-只检查创建的活动数量不够。您还必须检查isSaveInstanceState。我的自定义方法isApplicationRunning()检查android应用程序是否正在运行:

下面是我的工作代码:

public class AppLifecycleService implements Application.ActivityLifecycleCallbacks {
    private int created;
    private boolean isSaveInstanceState;
    private static AppLifecycleService instance;

    private final static String TAG = AppLifecycleService.class.getName();

    public static AppLifecycleService getInstance() {
        if (instance == null) {
            instance = new AppLifecycleService();
        }
        return instance;
    }

    public static boolean isApplicationRunning() {
        boolean isApplicationRunning = true;
        if (getCountCreatedActvities() == 0 && !isSaveInstanceState()) {
            isApplicationRunning = false;
        }
        return isApplicationRunning;
    }

    public static boolean isSaveInstanceState() {
        return AppLifecycleService.getInstance().isSaveInstanceState;
    }

    public static int getCountCreatedActvities() {
        return AppLifecycleService.getInstance().created;
    }

    private AppLifecycleService() {
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivitySaveInstanceState(Activity activity, Bundle outState) {
        this.isSaveInstanceState = true;
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityCreated(Activity activity, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        ++created;
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityDestroyed(Activity activity) {
        --created;
    }

    @Override
    public void onActivityResumed(Activity activity) {   }

    @Override
    public void onActivityPaused(Activity activity) { }


    @Override
    public void onActivityStarted(Activity activity) { }

    @Override
    public void onActivityStopped(Activity activity) { }        

}

检测应用程序是否在后台运行的方法很少，但只有一种是完全可靠的:

The right solution (credits go to Dan, CommonsWare and NeTeInStEiN) Track visibility of your application by yourself using Activity.onPause, Activity.onResume methods. Store "visibility" status in some other class. Good choices are your own implementation of the Application or a Service (there are also a few variations of this solution if you'd like to check activity visibility from the service).   Example Implement custom Application class (note the isActivityVisible() static method): public class MyApplication extends Application { public static boolean isActivityVisible() { return activityVisible; } public static void activityResumed() { activityVisible = true; } public static void activityPaused() { activityVisible = false; } private static boolean activityVisible; } Register your application class in AndroidManifest.xml: <application android:name="your.app.package.MyApplication" android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/app_name" > Add onPause and onResume to every Activity in the project (you may create a common ancestor for your Activities if you'd like to, but if your activity is already extended from MapActivity/ListActivity etc. you still need to write the following by hand): @Override protected void onResume() { super.onResume(); MyApplication.activityResumed(); } @Override protected void onPause() { super.onPause(); MyApplication.activityPaused(); }   Update ActivityLifecycleCallbacks were added in API level 14 (Android 4.0). You can use them to track whether an activity of your application is currently visible to the user. Check Cornstalks' answer below for the details. The wrong one I used to suggest the following solution: You can detect currently foreground/background application with ActivityManager.getRunningAppProcesses() which returns a list of RunningAppProcessInfo records. To determine if your application is on the foreground check RunningAppProcessInfo.importance field for equality to RunningAppProcessInfo.IMPORTANCE_FOREGROUND while RunningAppProcessInfo.processName is equal to your application package name. Also if you call ActivityManager.getRunningAppProcesses() from your application UI thread it will return importance IMPORTANCE_FOREGROUND for your task no matter whether it is actually in the foreground or not. Call it in the background thread (for example via AsyncTask) and it will return correct results. While this solution may work (and it indeed works most of the time) I strongly recommend to refrain from using it. And here's why. As Dianne Hackborn wrote: These APIs are not there for applications to base their UI flow on, but to do things like show the user the running apps, or a task manager, or such. Yes there is a list kept in memory for these things. However, it is off in another process, managed by threads running separately from yours, and not something you can count on (a) seeing in time to make the correct decision or (b) have a consistent picture by the time you return. Plus the decision about what the "next" activity to go to is always done at the point where the switch is to happen, and it is not until that exact point (where the activity state is briefly locked down to do the switch) that we actually know for sure what the next thing will be. And the implementation and global behavior here is not guaranteed to remain the same in the future. I wish I had read this before I posted an answer on the SO, but hopefully it's not too late to admit my error. Another wrong solution Droid-Fu library mentioned in one of the answers uses ActivityManager.getRunningTasks for its isApplicationBroughtToBackground method. See Dianne's comment above and don't use that method either.

另一种没有额外依赖的方法是:

只需将此方法添加到应用程序类中，并在onCreate()中调用它即可。

var isInBackground = true

private fun setupActivityLifecycleCallbacks() {
    registerActivityLifecycleCallbacks(object : ActivityLifecycleCallbacks {
        override fun onActivityCreated(activity: Activity, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {}
        override fun onActivityStarted(activity: Activity) {}
        override fun onActivityResumed(activity: Activity) {
            isInBackground = false
        }
        override fun onActivityPaused(activity: Activity) {
            isInBackground = true
        }
        override fun onActivityStopped(activity: Activity) {}
        override fun onActivitySaveInstanceState(activity: Activity, outState: Bundle) {}
        override fun onActivityDestroyed(activity: Activity) {}
    })
}

AFAIK，你甚至可以使isInBackground静态，这样你就可以在没有上下文的情况下使用伴生对象访问它

我尝试了推荐的使用Application的解决方案。ActivityLifecycleCallbacks和许多其他的，但是它们没有像预期的那样工作。感谢Sarge，我想出了一个非常简单和直接的解决方案，我将在下面描述。

解决方案的关键是理解这样一个事实:如果我们有ActivityA和ActivityB，并且我们从ActivityA调用ActivityB(而不是调用ActivityA.finish)，那么ActivityB的onStart()将在ActivityA onStop()之前被调用。

这也是onStop()和onPause()之间的主要区别，在我读过的文章中没有人提到。

So based on this Activity's Lifecycle behavior, you can simply count how many times did onStart() and onPause() got called in your program. Note that for each Activity of your program, you must override onStart() and onStop(), in order to increment/decrement the static variable used for counting. Below is the code implementing this logic. Note that I am using a class that extends Application, so dont forget to declare on Manifest.xml inside Application tag: android:name=".Utilities", although it can be implemented using a simple custom class too.

public class Utilities extends Application
{
    private static int stateCounter;

    public void onCreate()
    {
        super.onCreate();
        stateCounter = 0;
    }

    /**
     * @return true if application is on background
     * */
    public static boolean isApplicationOnBackground()
    {
        return stateCounter == 0;
    }

    //to be called on each Activity onStart()
    public static void activityStarted()
    {
        stateCounter++;
    }

    //to be called on each Activity onStop()
    public static void activityStopped()
    {
        stateCounter--;
    }
}

现在，在我们程序的每个活动上，我们应该重写onStart()和onStop()和增量/减量，如下所示:

@Override
public void onStart()
{
    super.onStart();
    Utilities.activityStarted();
}

@Override
public void onStop()
{
    Utilities.activityStopped();
    if(Utilities.isApplicationOnBackground())
    {
        //you should want to check here if your application is on background
    }
    super.onStop();
}

根据这种逻辑，有两种可能的情况:

stateCounter = 0:停止活动的数量与启动活动的数量相等，这意味着应用程序正在后台运行。 stateCounter > 0:启动的次数大于停止的次数，即应用程序在前台运行。

注意:stateCounter < 0意味着有更多停止的活动而不是启动的活动，这是不可能的。如果您遇到这种情况，那么这意味着您没有像应该的那样增加/减少计数器。

你已经准备好了。你应该在onStop()中检查你的应用程序是否在后台。
