Hello,
In Android if a task needs to be executed in the background, you need to implement it as a Background Service. This is a native feature of Android, so you can refer to the following documentation and implement it in MAUI.
This guide discusses Xamarin.Android services, which are Android components that allow work to be done without an active user interface. Services are very commonly used for tasks that are performed in the background, such as time consuming calculations, downloading files, playing music, and so on. It explains the different scenarios that services are suited for and shows how to implement them both for performing long-running background tasks as well as for providing an interface for remote procedure calls.
Although this documentation is for Xamarin, MAUI is not different from Xamarin for the use of native features.
Best Regards,
Alec Liu.
