Idle Detector Complete
Hi there!
We just release this new plugin to the Bubble marketplace !
This plugin allows you to define rules to detect user inactivity and trigger workflows when the user becomes inactive or active. It can also trigger events when the user leaves or switches the tab.
Detect the user inactivity after a certain delay
Detect the tab status (visible/hidden)
Detect when page is closed and run a workflow
Based on a reliable library
Complete documentation
Use cases
-
Gaming and monitoring
Does your app run a game? Then you could detect when the user is not playing anymore in order to stop the session.
Does your app run an online test or exam? Then you could detect when the user leaves the tab or become inactive.
-
Performance Saving
Leaving a page that runs a lot of recurring workflows or manages a lot of data sources open can affect your app performance. You could stop those workflows or stop watching certain data types when the user is inactive.
The plugin is available for $3/month or $16 for a lifetime license.
We offer full documentation with the plugin and forum support.

Great with a robust plugin for this. I do this in app with some JS now.
Improvement suggestion; I have two events based on inactivity. First is to fire up a “Hey, are you there” popup. The second is if the user did not react to the first popup for certain time; another popup is shown “We have cleared your basket”. Could the plugin cater for both?
Best, Peter
Hi, yes Peter the plugin can do this already
This is an interesting plug-in @vnihoul77 that fits the use case for “refresh repeating groups” bug that many bubblers for last several years have been trying to find workarounds for, especially native app bubble apps. The RG refresh bug stems from idling & inactivity when user close the page or app….
My app especially needs an assist because it creates a clunky UX when RG don’t refresh. I know the Bubble founders are looking for bandaid solutions until the bug is fixed
Hello;
I have been using this plugin for about a year now, but in the last week or so, it appears when a user is detected to be idle, it gets caught in some sort of loop that max’s out my app’s capacity.
It is a very simple setup, when a user is detected to be idle, log the user out.
Currently this is creating hundreds of entries in my logs when the condition is true.
Is it possible something has changed recently? I had to disable it for now.
Thanks
Hi, this is surprising, I use it myself on a few live apps and didn’t notice any outage.
Would be helpful if you could contact us using the chat at https://flusk.eu/plugins and provide an editor/preview link.
