great video as usual!
Fantastic, What a great explanation 🔥🔥
Keep em coming
First of all, I would like to thank you for making quality and easy to understand content, I got a question about notifications on android 12 and above. Why is it taking 5-7 seconds to show the notification for the first time? I am building a music player, and this is quite irritating. Thanks for the response
I am actully enjoying and learning from this playlist
And you content is ❤
Thanks a lot, bro !
Holy F thank you, I didn't know you needed to add a channel from de app class, was looking at the android guides like crazy
Note: Apps don't need to request the POST_NOTIFICATIONS permission in order to launch a foreground service. However, apps must include a notification when they start a foreground service, just as they do on previous versions of Android.
Yes you don't need it to launch one, but if your use case requires a foreground service, it's very likely it would be better UX to show a notification to the user
@@PhilippLackner spotify never send me a push notification to run the tracks on my device, I only see foreground task on the notification section, when I swipe down( left side)
But you need POST_NOTIFICATIONS to display the notification that must be included with the service, right? Because in such case then yes, it is needed, not directly, but it is. Or does the service work anyways?
Thanks for everything ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks alot 🤩🤩
Great videos!
Sign of a great instructor: using past mistakes as learning opportunities ... 👍
Hey Phil, that was a great introduction into ForegroundServices. However I would like to know how it’s possible to check if the service is running after the app has been closed? So I can block most of the UI and automatically start a ViewModel to monitor the ForegroundService
Hi Philipp, thanks for the great content. What I ask myself and already ran into when using services: Whats the best way for communication or interaction between service and viewmodel? As i know both should't know eachother. So do I need a class between and if so, the class would just pass the data through. Sounds unneccessary...
PLEASE, Make a video on modifying ripple effect, shape, and colors of buttons, iconbuttons and navigationbaritem. 🙏
Thanks for the video.
Can you say something regarding starting foreground service while the app is in the background? For Bluetooth apps do we need to use Companion Device Manager as mentioned in official documentation or is there some other way to start foreground service?
You should have mentioned the FGS TaskManager where you can also stop a service
Greetings from Hamburg, Germany! :)
Great
Thanks for this cool well explained video. I need to implement this, but, I need the service to be launched when the phone boots, and I need to listen for incomming calls. Can I do that in this service ? I mean ... have a bradocastreceiver inside this service and launch this service when the phone just boot. Thanks !
Nice work. Just one question. how to deal with mutable flag/ immutable flag if my minimum sdk version is..24 ?
Greate!
The link to the permissions tutorial wasn't added. I'm guessing you forgot as you predicted.😊. kindly point me to it. Thanks, Nice work.
I have a one doubt philipp uses Service class that run default on "main thread" when we perform some long-running operation our ui should freeze lead to "ANR" error, So instead of simple Service class we can use IntentService, or JobScheduler .
would u please make a short tutorial on how to enable and setup VPN mode in a kotlin app?
I am curious how the interaction should be structured between a data layer, or if you can have start() in the service modify state variables to force recomposition? I suppose I am lost in the concepts for the architecture if wanting to tie in using a viewmodel.
thank you for your tutorials !!!
question: what is the service type for a vpn service ?
What if we want to communicate with a service, get states inside it, etc.. only for a specific Jetpack Compose screen in our application and not for the whole activity that screen is in?
Thank you. Good job! I have a question...I created restart function . I call stop and start service...and it's doesn't work as expected...why?)
Nice video just review the information
Bro i need to track user location using geofencing in background so that when he leaves particular loaction another service should eb triggered and then another i kind of need them to get triggered in a chained reaction manner and all of this should be done in background even when the appi snot opened please tell em how to do thithis
This was a lot of help. I struggled for a little to figure out the changes needed to get API 34 requirements so the code would work. I am also a little confused on how I would go about updating notification. if wanting to implement a timer.
My use case is trying to make a 'download bar', to indicate how far along I am in a download. I am still a little stuck, but this helped me quite a bit.
Hey what changes did u make in code ?
Hi Philip
I watch your videos and it really helps me to learn new things and even crack interviews too. But only the thing is missing android security e.g SSL Pinning, Key Pinning & Hash Pinning there is no any good resource to learn from. Hope you will create an video soon with these topics. Thanks
Hi Bro,
Why does Flutter not support foreground services for Android 11 and 12 ?
Please make a video about MediaSessionService.
Hi Philip! First of all, thank you for this great playlist and the video. However, I didn't understand the last part you mentioned. From what I understand, you are suggesting not to place all of the code inside the Foreground Service, but rather keep it in other classes like ViewModels, etc. But If the app gets killed, all of these classes will be destroyed. I didn't quite grasp what you were trying to convey.

what different between thread and service ? .When do we use service in android ?
How about a music player foreground service?
Hi @4ytonly did you got Any solution for this?
Can we start an activity automatically using foreground service, when app is in background in latest android?
Please make a video on how to save files locally and especially where to place the code to do that
From the Activity, can't you call stopService() instead of startService() with STOP action?
Give this man a shield 🛡️
When not geting permission for android 13+ service is running in background without permission on me .
Also already running correctly on +26 api devices without notificationChannel. Why we putting channels then ?
How remove notification below android 13. Any trick ?
Most of the OEM(Vivo, Xiomi,etc..) quit the service even if it is a foreground service with notification. do you have any idea how to handle this ??
dear where u made the startServices in my app not resolved
please provide something for storage related task such as reading files, writing files etc.
Is there any available promo code for your courses ?
This video has helped me a lot in adding foregroundService to my midi player app. Thanks! I still struggle with the notification behavior when the app is closed by the user. As you mentioned at the end of the video, the app remains fully functional and can be controlled through the notification. But when I relaunch the app it opens a second instance. Also, when I click anywhere on the notification while the app is still open, it directs me back to the app which is great, but when the app has been closed clicking on the notification (other than the designated action buttons) does not relaunch the app. Sorry for the long question but do you have a pointer on that issue?
If you always want to open a specific page after clicking it, you need to make the pending intent trigger a deep link
My Problem: When the phone enters Doze mode, the foreground service stops working.
How to prevent that?
Notifications are delayed to reduce spam to the user for services that finish their work quickly. That's why your notification doesn't show right away. It started somewhere around API 30 or so and i think the delay is 5 or 10 seconds. You can get rid of this if you set your foregroundServiceType e.g. to phoneCall - a phoneCall should immediately show a notification, and so the notification is not delayed.
hey Phil I have added all the permissions and services but in android 13 the service get's terminated after 3-4 minutes
can you pleas provide some solutions how to fix this in android 13
In lower version of android foreground service run's forever until we intentionally kill that
dearr i am using the andirod 9 permision not got it
You didn't talk about how the Doze mode affect the services
please make video on api level 34 with service because foreground service crashes on api level 34 .
can i WRITE My service class in kotlin but my other classes are in java?
you are an android god
Close!
True. If God would explain the world
I agree

What should we use, WorkManager or Services?
and what are the benefits of them?
I personally would like to use WorkManager because it support Coroutines
What's your opinion?
Different use cases, watch the video 😄
@@PhilippLackner oh, better to make a short video about that😉
You can use coroutines inside the Service - why not?
@@igorkonyukhov497 Thank you❤️
XIaomi device does not dismiss lockscreen when opening Activity from background (VOIP Call) please help me out regarding this point

Now whom interesting to start the android journey . U are role like google map…
Fan fact: This is 666 th video on this channel
First
We love this series brooo make more video's ASAP 🫡
Goal :
- Need to run a service in the background for 20-40 mins every 2 hour (Battery usage no issue)
Correct me - if i m wrong :
- WorkManagers workers thread has a hard limit of 10 minutes, which defeat the purpose of long running task in the background
- I mean for short running repeated task its ok but for long running repeated task it doesn't work
- As per my knowledge the best approach to run a long running repeated task is using foreground service
- But some task doesn't need user interaction & some long running tasks doesn't need a foreground service
----> My question to you is what is the alternative ???
----> To run the above task what options are available ???
