I did a search before asking so please don’t tell me to do that.
I’m relatively new to Android so I get confused easily.

I’m making a simple app that changes the ringer volume according to time. For this purpose, I know I need a service that keeps running in the bg and monitor time. However, I really don’t know how to approach this. I have the Professional Android Application Development book but haven’t found anything that helps in there.

My question:

  • How to constantly check time without destroying the battery

If my code is needed (as proof of me actually working on this), I’ll post.

    You don’t need a service. Use the AlarmManager class. Its like an alarm clock and it exactly what you need for this type of app.
