How can I share an Object between a running Service and Activity

Question

I have an API Object that I made, and I would like to share it between a running Service and various Activities in my app, almost like if I was to make the class static. How could I go about sharing the created object between the two?

Ha ha awesome. I love it when the answer is along the lines of "I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I am going to politely point out that a quick search could likely have been all you needed" – Hamy Aug 08 '10 at 04:35

I figured out the best way to do this is to have a class that holds all the information that you want, and to use that class through each activity and service.

Did you use a Singleton or a `Parcelable` object? – Sufian Jun 02 '14 at 06:11

Are you setting the fields static in that class? – Bahadir Tasdemir Jun 18 '17 at 11:55
