Hi there, I am confused on the different between

lifecycleScope.launchWhenResumed

and

lifecycle.repeatOnLifecycle(Lifecycle.State.RESUMED)

, so could anyone explain it for me? Thanks in advance!

The blog post about

repeatOnLifecycle

talks about this: https://link.medium.com/qRILExz8lzb

tl/dr,

launchWhen

APIs would actually keep the flow active even when you weren't resumed, it would just pause actually delivering any results to your UI

While

repeatOnLifecycle

actually cancels the work when you go below that minimum state, ensuring you aren't wasting resources in the background

And I heard

launchWhenX

is already deprecated in favor of

repeatOnLifecycle

I wonder when repeatOnLifecycle will be deprecated…
