Question

I a’m creating an Android application in which I’m managing some remainders. I want that when a certain event occur the dialog is show, And this is not a problem from me. But I want that if the user does not make any response within two minutes the dialog automatically dismiss. How can I implement this?

Answer 1

static AlertDialog alert = ....;


alert.show();

Runnable dismissRunner = new Runnable() {
    public void run() {
        if( alert != null )
            alert.dismiss();            
    };
new Handler().postDelayed( dismissRunner, 120000 );

Don’t forget to alert = null in your regular dialog dismiss code (i.e. button onClick).
