javascript setInterval paused when screen is locked (IOS)
This issue occurs on IOS device only. When the screen of iphone is locked the setInterval stop executing.
eg:
If 10 sec is set in setInterval() for every 1 sec the number will reduce to 9,8,7....,0, but when I locked the screen at 8sec for 2sec the timer should be continuing to 7,6...0, instead what happened was, when I open the screen again the timer starts from 8sec again instead of 6sec.
Working fine in ANDROID.

You can take different approach. save initial time and reduce value from current time.
let start = new Date().getTime();
setInterval(x=>{
console.log( parseInt( (new Date().getTime()-start)/1000))
}, 1000)answered Nov 13 '18 at 6:29
