What is the state of an Activity's display during different stages of its lifecycle?

Answer from AI

The lifecycle of an Activity in Android includes several stages, each with a display state on the screen:

  • onCreate() — The Activity is created but not yet visible to the user.
  • onStart() — The Activity becomes visible but is not yet interactive.
  • onResume() — The Activity is in the foreground and interactive, the user can interact.
  • onPause() — The Activity is partially visible (for example, a dialog activity appears above it), and the user cannot fully interact.
  • onStop() — The Activity is completely hidden and not visible to the user.
  • onDestroy() — The Activity is destroyed.

Thus, the screen is displayed from onStart to onStop, and interactivity is only available between onResume and onPause.
