What is difference between IntentService and HandlerThread?

They both loop through a queue of something (messages/intents) and execute them?

IntentService is not really loop through a queue of Intents, It uses the Service to receive Intents and handle it in a worker thread, Actually, there is a HandlerThread running in IntentService doing the loop stuff.
