Is it possible to run a method only if it has not yet been run on the current day?

Question

I am currently working on a project that makes API calls to get data on release dates for movies. Currently, every time I load up an activity, I loop through the release dates saved on the device, and make several API calls to compare the data on the device to the data that the API returns. However, because I am dealing with "release dates," running this check a single time per day would be more than enough. Now here is the catch: This activity can be opened and closed several times by the user per day! So my question is: Is there some way to check and ensure that a method is only executed if it has NOT yet been executed on the current day?

并非没有某种后备存储，例如，一个文件或数据库表可以告诉您最近的运行时间。
