Unable To Bind To Service After Moving To Android 11

I have two applications. One that is a foreground service that does not use any of the permissions introduced in Android 11 (camera, location etc). I have client apps that connect

Solution 1:

You will need to add a <queries> element to the manifest of your client app, identifying the service app.

In this sample app with an application ID of com.commonsware.android.r.embed.server, I have a bound service.

In this sample client app, I added these lines to the manifest to allow the client app to bind to the service app:

  <queries>
    <package android:name="com.commonsware.android.r.embed.server" />
  </queries>
