Android - Service stops when swiping app from rece

问题:

I've developed an android application with a service that runs in the background the service is called like that

startService(new Intent(getApplicationContext(),myService.class));

but when I remove the app from the recent apps, the service stops and it crashes if I test it.. is there a way to prevent the service from being destroyed when swiping the app from the recent apps?

thank you

You can register a service to run on a repeating cycle using AlarmManager

The service will run even if the application is not running.
