Answer 1

If you want to know when use is looking at the fragment you should use

yourFragment.isResumed()

instead of

yourFragment.isVisible()

First of all isVisible() already checks for isAdded() so no need for calling both. Second, non-of these two means that user is actually seeing your fragment. Only isResumed() makes sure that your fragment is in front of the user and user can interact with it if thats whats you are looking for.
