Background App

Is it possible to develop an Android app using the Clover SDKs that runs on bootup on the station and does not have a UI ? ( A service type of app ? )

thanks! mark

Yes, but keeping a long-running service is not good practice. You should consider having your app wake up periodically to perform a task then allowing the device to reclaim the resources for other purposes. Please read this for more information: https://developer.android.com/trainin...
