Android Question How to Stop Service when quit from App

[incendio]

Hi guys,

I run a service by put StartServiceAt command under Sub Service_Start.

How do I stop this service when quit from app?

I put this code when quit from app

Sub Activity_KeyPress (KeyCode As Int) As Boolean 'return true if you want to consume the event
    If KeyCode = KeyCodes.KEYCODE_BACK Then
         StopService(MyService)
         ExitApplication
    End If
End Sub

But the service still running, the only way to stop it is reboot my device.

Hi,

for a scheduled service StopService will not work since its is intended to stop a currently running service.
Try the following:

StopService(yourservicehere)
CancelScheduledService(yourservicehere)
