A Service hija komponent Android għall-għamil ta' operazzjonijiet mingħajr UI — tipikament xogħol itwal ta' żmien fil-background. Hemm tipi differenti (foreground, background, bound), kull waħda adattata għal bżonnijiet differenti, għalkemm Android modern jiffavorixxi WorkManager għal ħafna każi.
X'inhu Service
A SERVICE runs operations WITHOUT a UI (not tied to a screen):
→ for work that should continue regardless of UI (or independent of any activity)
→ declared in the manifest; runs in the app's process (main thread by default — must
move heavy work off it!)
