Count Idle time on browser

Already implemented something like this But it fails on mobile devices. As soon as the device browser goes in background (Screen lock/ user start another app / press home key) javascript counter stops counting idle time. I know this is OS behavior to optimize memory and CPU utilization but just curious is there any way to achieve expected behavior on mobile browser.

Instead of counting, you should store a timestamp in memory, when it become active again, compare this timestamp with now, and then do your action. You can do this with Date object and getTime().
