Ive achieved a simular behaviour with those plugins background_fetch and flutter_local_notification ... saved me the trouble of fiddling too much with platform specific code but your version gives more insight on what’s going on

Excellent tutorial!!!
Once the service is created, how do you communicate between the flutter app and the service?

[Shakl-e]

Saved me, great job! Please create the same tutorial for iOS and don't you want to create a plugin for this?

Thanks for this video, very well articulated. I was wondering if we can get an instance of the activity in the background service to make it activity aware while it runs in the background.
