UserManager
open class UserManager
| kotlin.Any | |
| ↳ | android.os.UserManager |
Manages users and user details on a multi-user system. There are two major categories of users: fully customizable users with their own login, and profiles that share a workspace with a related user.
Users are different from accounts, which are managed by AccountManager. Each user can have their own set of accounts.
See DevicePolicyManager.ACTION_PROVISION_MANAGED_PROFILE for more on managed profiles.

isUserRunning
open fun isUserRunning(user: UserHandle!): Boolean
Return whether the given user is actively running. This means that the user is in the "started" state, not "stopped" -- it is currently allowed to run code through scheduled alarms, receiving broadcasts, etc. A started user may be either the current foreground user or a background user; the result here does not distinguish between the two.
Note prior to Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version <= 24; android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N, this API required a system permission in order to check other profile's status. Since Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version >= 25; android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N_MR1), the restriction has been relaxed, and now it'll accept any android.os.UserHandle within the same profile group as the caller.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
user |
UserHandle!: The user to retrieve the running state for. |
isUserRunningOrStopping
open fun isUserRunningOrStopping(user: UserHandle!): Boolean
Return whether the given user is actively running or stopping. This is like isUserRunning(android.os.UserHandle), but will also return true if the user had been running but is in the process of being stopped (but is not yet fully stopped, and still running some code).
Note prior to Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version <= 24; android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N, this API required a system permission in order to check other profile's status. Since Android Nougat MR1 (SDK version >= 25; android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#N_MR1), the restriction has been relaxed, and now it'll accept any android.os.UserHandle within the same profile group as the caller.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
user |
UserHandle!: The user to retrieve the running state for. |
isUserUnlocked
open fun isUserUnlocked(): Boolean
Return whether the context user is running in an "unlocked" state.
On devices with direct boot, a user is unlocked only after they've entered their credentials (such as a lock pattern or PIN). On devices without direct boot, a user is unlocked as soon as it starts.
When a user is locked, only device-protected data storage is available. When a user is unlocked, both device-protected and credential-protected private app data storage is available.
isUserUnlocked
open fun isUserUnlocked(user: UserHandle!): Boolean
Return whether the given user is running in an "unlocked" state.
On devices with direct boot, a user is unlocked only after they've entered their credentials (such as a lock pattern or PIN). On devices without direct boot, a user is unlocked as soon as it starts.
When a user is locked, only device-protected data storage is available. When a user is unlocked, both device-protected and credential-protected private app data storage is available.
Requires android.permission.MANAGE_USERS or android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS, otherwise specified user must be the calling user or a profile associated with it.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
user |
UserHandle!: to retrieve the unlocked state for. |
requestQuietModeEnabled
open fun requestQuietModeEnabled(
enableQuietMode: Boolean,
userHandle: UserHandle
): Boolean
Enables or disables quiet mode for a profile. If quiet mode is enabled, apps in the profile don't run, generate notifications, or consume data or battery.
If a user's credential is needed to turn off quiet mode, a confirm credential screen will be shown to the user.
The change may not happen instantly, however apps can listen for Intent.ACTION_MANAGED_PROFILE_AVAILABLE and Intent.ACTION_MANAGED_PROFILE_UNAVAILABLE broadcasts in order to be notified of the change of the quiet mode for managed profile. Apps can listen to generic broadcasts android.content.Intent#ACTION_PROFILE_AVAILABLE and android.content.Intent#ACTION_PROFILE_UNAVAILABLE to be notified of the change in quiet mode for any profiles. Apps can also check the current state of quiet mode by calling isQuietModeEnabled(android.os.UserHandle).
The caller must either be the foreground default launcher or have one of these permissions: MANAGE_USERS or MODIFY_QUIET_MODE.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
enableQuietMode |
Boolean: whether quiet mode should be enabled or disabled |
userHandle |
UserHandle: user handle of the profile This value cannot be null. |
| Return | |
|---|---|
Boolean |
false if user's credential is needed in order to turn off quiet mode, true otherwise |
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
java.lang.SecurityException |
if the caller is invalid |
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException |
if userHandle is not a profile |
