Android google play services and IntentService

Question

I want to use the google play service to create an app. My goal is to use the location info even when the app is in background.

I have to create the link with google play service in an intent service or else use sample activity and avoid to stop the connection when app is in background??

Answer 1

Use a pending intent approach and set your intentService with it, in this way when Android launch the intent your service is started.
