Creating an app that run everytime I turn the screen on

I'm using android studio and I was wondering if there's a way to make an app that run every time I turn on the screen (e.g. screen lock). I know this has been asked before, but I can't understand where to put the code for this.. please help

Solution 

  • <!-- SCREEN_ON BroadCast intent-filter -->  
< receiver android: name = ".broadcast.LockScreenReceiver" >
  < intent - filter >
  < action android: name = "android.intent.action.SCREEN_ON" / >
  < action android: name = "android.intent.action.SCREEN_OFF" / >
  < action android: name = "android.intent.action.USER_PRESENT" / >
  < /intent-filter>  
</receiver >


  //receive broadcast and do something
  public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
    if (Intent.ACTION_USER_PRESENT.equals(intent.getAction())) {
      Log.e("scrennOn", "I'm comming!");
    }
  }
