I have 2 different apps, its required to create one more app which provides some services to these apps. Since it acts as service provider, UI is not required. How to achieve this? and service should be running in background always

    somebody has to start that service before it is able to run in background. Who will it be? – Vladyslav Matviienko Feb 14 '19 at 13:06

    I used to have a Service only Android Wear app back when Wear apps were automatically installed on a user's watch. But I would not really consider a solution like this for the phone. It will only confuse users because they will have nothing to interact with after they manually download your service app from the play store. It sounds like what you really need is a service module and a remote server. Perhaps a ContentProvider. But without any details, it is difficult to comment. – Elletlar Feb 14 '19 at 14:00
  • Start the service from one of those 2 activities you have already started. – statosdotcom Feb 14 '19 at 18:01
  • @VladyslavMatviienko,--- I want to start the service on BOOT_COMPLETE using broadcast receiver – Shwetha K S Feb 15 '19 at 07:16
