I have developed an Android application that has 1 process and 2 services. But I noticed that “Google Services” has 2 processes and 1 service. How can it have 2 processes? I did some reading at Processes and Threads to try to understand more about processes. It talks about having a manifest entry, but without a concrete example I don’t get it. Can someone explain how an Android application can have more than 1 process and provide a concrete example of that?

    You can specify android:process=":remote" in your manifest to have an activity/service run in a seperate process.

    The “remote” is just the name of the remote process, and you can call it whatever you want. If you want several activities/services to run in the same process, just give it the same name.

    <activity android:name=".RemoteActivity" android:label="@string/app_name" android:process=":RemoteActivityProcess"/>
