Android Question Stop service when application ends

[Mostez]

my application keeps service running even after program ends, how to stop a running service when application ends?

 

[Num3]

In android when you exit an application, it will not end immediately, the OS will determine when to "kill it".

You can force the app to end using (not recommended):

ExitApplication

You can stop a running service using:

StopService(ServiceName)

Hope this helps.

That's exactly what I did, I called StopService then ExitApplication!

In almost all cases it is a mistake to call ExitApplication. Just let the OS do its job and it will eventually kill the process.
