    You will not want to let your app “run” 24/7, because that will cause the device to never go to sleep and therefore drain the battery in a way that is usually not acceptable.

    You can easily catch an broadcast of the state change of your wifi connection.
    For an example you can look here

    If you want your app to be running 24/7, is it to react to some events? Because you can usually catch any event with BroadCast-Receivers or Intents. In most scenarios this is the way to go.
