Android Question Will an App be killed by the OS if it has a scheduled to start a service?

[opus]

I have a question regarding the use of a Service that is scheduled every X minutes (using "StartServiceAt" inside the Service_Start Sub).
Will such an App be killed if not active by the OS although it has scheduled to start a service?

Thanks

It can be killed by the OS, or not, at any time, but will start again because it has been scheduled

If you want to increase the chances that it will not be killed then you should make it a sticky service: Creating a sticky service - long running background tasks
