Redirect the application to Home screen after screen timeout

Question

I am creating an application with possible high security in it. i simply want an application to redirect to its home screen as soon as the screen time runs out.. or after 1 minute when users stop accessing. Thanks

Thanks for replying but..i don't want application to be redirect after exact 1 minute.. i want application to redirect after some time after user stop accessing it.. just like screen timeout in android — Nishant Sambyal, Oct 03 '16 at 09:46

int counter=0;

boolean isStart=true;

private void start(){

Thread t=new Thread(new Runnable() {

@Override
public void run() {

    while (isStart){

        try {

            Thread.sleep(100);

            counter++;

            if(counter>=10){//for one minute

                //your code

                isStart=false;

            }

        } catch (InterruptedException e) {

            e.printStackTrace();

        }

    }

}

});

t.start();

}

set counter zero when user access.

the problem is how to reset the counter to 0 – Nishant Sambyal Oct 03 '16 at 10:19
When user touch or click within one minute then set it to 0. – D.J Oct 03 '16 at 10:34

You can use Handler or CountDownTimer for counting the time or schedule the next task. After the time finish you need to redirect to home screen.

If the Home screen is just before the current screen simply call finish() or context.finish() to move the Home screen.
If the Home screen is not just before the current screen use intent to reach the Home screen.

Hope it will helpful.
