Yes, if you have both sides in your hand. But the basis of
my assumption was, that this is not the case.
Example Requirement : Don't pop up the triggered dialog,
if a certain 3rd Party dialog is
already shown.
Good luck ! Frank

I'm just trying to check from a service what's on the top of the
activity stack, because the app starts another app instantly in
onCreate(), from previous settings. I'm looking to kill my service
automatically without having to comeback to my program at all. So I'm
just looking for a way to
I suppose you could simply have the activity, when it comes to
foreground (onResume), go ahead and stop the service?

You assume there is one activity stack. Each task has a stack:

What does turning off my app mean?

I'll think you need to more precise what that trigger is. Previously,
you've been asking how to know what activty is on top of the stack. It
seems that the activity on top of the stack is the one your activity
started. So I would say the trigger is the moment when your activity
starts the other
Please stop saying I am on the right track. I am really trying very hard
to tell you *not* to do this, because it is not going to be a robust
solution. Not this, not RunningTaskInfo. These APIs are not there for
applications to base their UI flow on, but to do things like show the user

Hello Frank,
one reason for this kind of question could be, that
his service get an hardware event and would like to start i.e. a
dialog.
But his service is not allowed to hide another Activity.
Such a scenario I could imagine.

You can send a broadcast to your foreground process using a receiver
that triggers the foreground process to call a method in the service
from onReceive().

It is possible, see the ActivityManager class functions like

getRunningTasks() looks useful but is flakey in my experience e.g.

The OP didn't specify whether he needs to track activities of other apps, or
his own.
If it's his own activities, it could be as simple as tracking state changes
in activities' onStart/onStop or onResume/onPause. More reliable, too.

I had something sort of working once, but it kept doing things like
reporting an ime as the foreground, rather than the activity it was
accepting input on behalf of... which made it useless for my purpose.

That paragraph should go in the docs IMO, save people finding out the

I'm curious what the OP was trying to accomplish. It seems to me that
even if the informastion were available, it could be out of date in a
very short matter of time.
