You can use AlarmManager to schedule repeating actions. Something like this:

myAlarmManager.setRepeating(AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP, System.currentTimeMillis(), 1000 * 60 * 10, pi); // Millisec * Second * Minute

As someone mentioned in comments

Check the time when user open the app, and if he should be logged out perform the logout and perform to the LogIn activity you probably implemented.

If I misunderstood something, let me know.

If you started coding this behaviour, you can provide some code snippets
