The situation is this: they opened the application, pressed the button, launched the IntentService, closed the application, then it was unloaded from memory. And the service continues to hang. For example, thanks to the notification.

How do I open an application to convert an existing IntentService, instead of creating a new one? I can get a copy of the existing service myself, but how can I convert it to Intent without re-creating it?

new Intent(this, SomeService.class)

I understand that in any case creates a new service. Or am I wrong?

    A new service should not be created, only a certain method of an already existing service should be invoked, which is easy to verify just by checking it.
