Hello there, i am building and android app and i have made a procedure that after is loaded will execute all the time after a define number of minutes. The procedure runs fine as long as the app is open and is active on the screen. but if you open another app so my app gose into the background then the procedure does not execute.

How can i ensure that this precedure executes even is the application is on the background ?

Thanks

Hi. When an application goes into the background, its Activity stops. To continue running code you must create a Persistent Thread and put your code inside it. see the help.

You can use the new Task functions of WM23.
