Can Glass applications be paused?

Question

On a regular Android device, an application is paused when it loses focus but retains visibility. On the Glass, it looks like only one application can be visible at a time and there's no way to change focus.

So it looks like there's no pause state for Glass applications. Is this correct?

That's true, but is there anything the user can do to trigger the paused state? — MatthewScarpino, Dec 24 '13 at 12:45

you should find onPause for an Activity will be called in these (and possibly more) situations:

when the Activity is put into the background due to a new Activity replacing it on the stack,
when the device sleeps (due to timeout or head nod),
when user navigates back out of the app but system keeps it in memory.
