Problem:

• I have used collectAsStateWithLifecycle to collect the flow
• Now once I initiate the flow and minimize the app still the flow is active
• According to collectAsStateWithLifecycle flow emission should get paused when app is minimized

ViewModel

@HiltViewModel
class CollectAsStateWithLifeCycleVm @Inject constructor(
    @ApplicationContext private val context: Context,
) : ViewModel() {

    companion object {
        const val INITIAL_VALUE = 0
    }

    private var currentTime = INITIAL_VALUE

    private val _data = MutableStateFlow(0)
    val data = _data.asStateFlow()


    init {
        initiate()
    }

    private fun initiate() {
        viewModelScope.launch {
            while(true){
                delay(1000L)
                println("Flow is active current time ---> $currentTime")
                _data.emit(currentTime++)
            }
        }
    }

    val newTimer = flow {
        while(true){
            delay(1000L)
            println("Flow is active current time ---> $currentTime")
            emit(currentTime++)
        }
    }.stateIn(viewModelScope, SharingStarted.WhileSubscribed(5000L),0)

}

Composable

@Composable
fun CollectAsStateWithLifeCycleDemo(navController: NavHostController){

    val viewModel: CollectAsStateWithLifeCycleVm = hiltViewModel()
    //val time = viewModel.data.collectAsStateWithLifecycle()
    //val time = viewModel.newTimer.collectAsStateWithLifecycle()
    val time: Int by viewModel.data.collectAsStateWithLifecycle()

    Column(
        modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize(),
        horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally,
        verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Center
    ) {

        Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(16.dp))

        Text(
            text = time.toString(),
            fontSize = 30.sp
        )

    }

}
