In what situations does a service in an application get destroyed?

The Android system terminates a service in the following situations:

• When the service is explicitly stopped using stopSelf() or stopService().
• If the service was started as a started service and has completed its work.
• When resources are scarce, the system may kill the service, especially if it is not a foreground service.
• If the application or process hosting the service is terminated.

It is important to remember that for foreground services, the system tries not to destroy the service to ensure continuous operation, for example, for music playback or navigation.
