React hooks useEffect only on update?

Question

If we want to restrict useEffect to run only when the component mounts, we can add second parameter of useEffect with [].

Answer 1

Took help from Subham's answer This code will only run for particular item update not on every update and not on component initial mounting.

const isInitialMount = useRef(true);    //useEffect to run only on updates except initial mount


//useEffect to run only on updates except initial mount
  useEffect(() => {
    if (isInitialMount.current) {
        isInitialMount.current = false;
     } else {              
         if(fromScreen!='ht1' && appStatus && timeStamp){
            // let timeSpentBG = moment().diff(timeStamp, "seconds");
            // let newHeatingTimer = ((bottomTab1Timer > timeSpentBG) ? (bottomTab1Timer - timeSpentBG) : 0);
            // dispatch({
            //     type: types.FT_BOTTOM_TAB_1,
            //     payload: newHeatingTimer,
            // })
            // console.log('Appstaatus', appStatus, timeSpentBG, newHeatingTimer)
         }
     }
  }, [appStatus])
