Hello, in this video, I will show you how to utilize Background and Foreground Services in Android.
There are 3 types of services in Android - Background, Foreground, and Bound. Each of these terms are misleading because it is not describing the behavior of how each service are used, but it is describing how they are terminated.
For Android Developers, a Service is a component that runs on the background to perform long-running tasks.
A Background Service is a service that runs only when the app is running so it’ll get terminated when the app is terminated.
A Foreground Service is a service that stays alive even when the app is terminated.
And a Bound Service is a service that runs only if the component it is bound to is still active.

Very clear and direct explanation of the different service types. 👍 However you mention that multiple instances of the service will get created if started multiple times, but this isn't so; there will only be one instance of the service object but its onStartCommand() function will be invoked those multiple times.
you're salve my life bro, i have weeks searching this info. Thanksh! like and new sub
This was a good video. I learned so much in a short amount of time!

I hope to learn how to play the list view of music through the service by Raw or Assest folder to work in background long time ... thanks for this video
The best explanation for services I've found and it's just what I needed. I would add a handler to show a toast message from the service. Handler mainHandler = new Handler(getMainLooper()); mainHandler.post(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { // Do your stuff here related to UI, e.g. show toast Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Message from Service", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); } });
Thanks alot bro
If i use NDK to run a C++ library, which service should i use to run the code out of process? Sometimes C++ crashs and i want them to take a service down but not the whole app. So i need to do the same as all webbrowsers do it.
Thanks
Very helpful
thanks
amazing
I have tested this on real device when I restart the device I didn't see the notification that you got...? Is there anything to add more?
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw ma bro its amazing

After restarting the app background service is not displaying in the notification area. I have tested on my mobile. Please help 🥺
I believe from what I read on google documentation, that there is no need to check if the service is running. Apparently, that was a bug.
Thank you for the sharing! Any idea we can get Firestore document update if our app is terminated?

If the service stops, it could mean that the task is finished. If you want to keep it alive, you need to do something to keep the service alive like a while loop.

i cant able to receive broadcast after my app has been killed
the app works fine in the background, but if I want to use it in the foreground it crashes after about 7 seconds. I don't know why

Use wake lock with no time limit to make foreground service work infinitely. But never forget that unnecessary amount of foreground service usage is a real battery killer
Yo how this receiver working really we didnt even set registerReceiver()

Create a foreground service - 3:43 If you want to restart the service automatically, create a broadcast receiver - 11:12
how to stop..
kzread.info/dash/bejne/lHVr2JOOks3Sqto.html Here, the service is stopped. But the service is not explicitly stopped by calling stopService() or stopSelf() from within the service itself or by another component such as an activity or a broadcast receiver. I wonder why? Thx :)
