I was wondering how can I check the last application executed by the user

  • 0

I was wondering how can I check the last application executed by the user in Android Phone (in terminal). I was checking with ps command but no timestamp is shown. What I want to get is the PID of the last application executed by the user.

Any suggestion?

Best regards

    I would just use

    adb logcat 
    

    and check for the last user application which was executed (the pid is in the brackets). I doubt there’s an more reliable way to retrieve this information as there might a lot of background process (own pid, own user) involved or running without connection to the last user process.
