Hi everyone, two short questions.

1- Is there a way that I can use tho know if the app’s user exit form the application?

2- Is possible to change phone setting from the applications: wifi, ringtone and notifications?

Thanks you.

Hi @justudy.appe 👋

1. You can use the backpressed event on each screen as a good proxy for when a user exits the app

2. No, you can’t change system settings like this and it’s not something that Google or Apple really allow anymore

Hope that helps
