dualznz Member Licensed User Longtime User Jun 18, 2013 #1 Hi all i have a application thats having a simple issue. this application has a service and widget BUT for some odd reason when i call ExitApplication, the app closes and so does the service but after a couple of hours the service restarts the only way for me to stop the service is to force close the application in the device settings. the service is running ServiceStartAt() but if the service is closed this shouldnt be running?? any help to solve this would be a great help cheers.

If you call "StartServiceAt()" you tell the Android alarmmanager to start your service at the specified time. No matter if your process is running at this time or not. So if you want to clear the alarm call "CancelScheduledService()" for your service. Upvote 0
