didChangeAppLifecycleState method

@override void didChangeAppLifecycleState(AppLifecycleState state)

Called when the system puts the app in the background or returns the app to the foreground.

An example of implementing this method is provided in the class-level documentation for the WidgetsBindingObserver class.

This method exposes notifications from SystemChannels.lifecycle.

Implementation

@override
void didChangeAppLifecycleState(AppLifecycleState state) {
  switch (state) {
    case AppLifecycleState.resumed:
      // ✅ App returned to foreground
      _isAppPaused = false;
      _invalidateCache(); // Refresh cache when app resumes
      _startCacheCleanupTimer();
      break;

    case AppLifecycleState.paused:
    case AppLifecycleState.inactive:
    case AppLifecycleState.detached:
    case AppLifecycleState.hidden:
      // ✅ App in background
      _isAppPaused = true;
      _stopCacheCleanupTimer();
      break;
  }
}
