Is the book downloaded on the device?
Can you confirm this happens when the screen is off and when you keep it on the listening time is correct?
@LordNyrox commented on GitHub (Aug 18, 2024):
No, it's on my PC, but I believe the issue is related to the screen timeout. As you can see in the first screenshot, it only tracked about 1 minute, even though I listened for 13 minutes. I had the screen timeout set to 1 minute, so it makes sense. The same thing happened with the 2-minute timeout setting on my phone—it only tracked for 1 minute and 47 seconds.
In the second screenshot, I set the screen timeout to 10 minutes and listened for 3 minutes, and it tracked the correct time. It only seems to not track or be inaccurate when the screen timeout is shorter.
@LordNyrox commented on GitHub (Aug 18, 2024):
I also tried version 0.9.72-beta, and the same issue occurred. I set the screen timeout to 30 seconds this time, listened for about 3 minutes, but it only tracked 28 seconds, as seen in the screenshot.

Can you check the app settings on your device to see what is set for allowing background activities? This will be different per device and per android version. For pixel 6 on Android 14 the settings to look for are in battery usage and mobile data usage.
It used to be under battery optimization settings for the app. Let me know what you find for your device
@LordNyrox commented on GitHub (Aug 18, 2024):
It was set to Optimised, but I changed it to Unrestricted, and the issue persists. As you can see in the screenshot below, it still isn't tracking correctly.
@LordNyrox commented on GitHub (Aug 18, 2024):
Even with the screen on, the tracking seems to be off. I've been listening for 10 minutes, but it tracked it as 17 minutes.
@LordNyrox commented on GitHub (Aug 18, 2024):
I have no coding experience, so I don't know if it's even possible or if this makes sense, but in the next update, the app should subtract the Start Time from the Last Time to fix the issue. The problem seems to only be with "Time Listened," and the Last/Start Time is always tracked accurately.
