In android, we can bind multiple components to a single service at once, but the service will be destroyed in case all the components unbind.

We can unbind the service by calling unbindService() method based on our requirements. The bound service runs as long as another application component is bound to it. Bound ServiceĪ service is Bound when another application component calls bindService() method. In android, the Started service component will perform a single operation and it won’t return any result to the caller. We can stop the Started service by using stopService() method or the service can stop itself by calling stopSelf() method. Once it started, it will run indefinitely in background even if the component that started is destroyed. Started ServiceĪ service is Started when an application component, such as an activity calls startService() method. In android, the life cycle of service will follow two different paths Started or Bound.
