You can override onPause
method, which runs when user presses home button and your application go in background, and onDestroy
which called back when your application is been killed.

You can run that service in onPause of a Activity. OnPause is Called when the user press home button. For Back Button, OnStop is Called. It won't work if the application crashes.

You can run that service in onStop
of a Activity.
Onstop
is Called when the activity is no longer visible to the user.
It won't work if the application crashes.
