The browser tab title should continuously update every second to reflect the current time, even when the tab is not in focus.
Actual Behavior
The browser tab title stops updating when the tab is not in focus and only resumes updating when the tab is brought back into focus.
Additional Information
This issue may be related to how modern browsers handle background tabs, potentially throttling JavaScript execution, which affects dynamic updates to the <title> element managed by React Helmet.
Possible Solution
Investigating if React Helmet's internal handling of the <title> tag update could be optimized for background tabs could be a starting point.
The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
Intervals are paused and/or run much less frequently when tabs are not in focus. This is by design so that background tabs do not take a lot of resources.
