Moving an application to the background.
import { BackAndroid } from 'react-native';
import ActivityAndroid 'react-native-activity-android';

// Note: callbacks are optional.
ActivityAndroid.moveTaskToBack(() => console.log('worked'), () => console.log('failed'));
return false; // Don't exit the app.
});
Lifecycle hooks.
import ActivityAndroid 'react-native-activity-android';
ActivityAndroid.addEventListener('activityPause', () => {
console.log('App is moved to the background');
});
ActivityAndroid.addEventListener('activityResume', () => {
console.log('App is moved to the foreground');
});
ActivityAndroid.removeEventListener('activityResume', callbackFn);
ActivityAndroid.removeEventListener('activityPause', callbackFn));
