取自文档：

IntentService is a base class for Services that handle asynchronous
requests (expressed as Intents) on demand. Clients send requests
through startService(Intent) calls; the service is started as needed,
handles each Intent in turn using a worker thread,and stops itself
when it runs out of work.

IntentService的一个示例：

public class MyService extends IntentService {

    @Override
    protected void onHandleIntent(Intent intent) {
        if (intent != null) {
            // Do some work here,get Intent extras if any,etc.
            // ...
            // Once this method ends,the IntentService will stop itself.
        }
    }   
}

这可以处理您的异步操作.如果您需要任何反馈,这将“打破”需求的异步部分,您可以使用LocalBroadcastManager或如您所说,您可以绑定到此Service.然后再次,它取决于您尝试做什么.

从文档中,您有两种类型的服务.

入门

A service is “started” when an application component (such as an
activity) starts it by calling startService(). Once started,a service
can run in the background indefinitely,even if the component that
started it is destroyed. Usually,a started service performs a single
operation and does not return a result to the caller. For example,it
might download or upload a file over the network. When the operation
is done,the service should stop itself.

界

A service is “bound” when an application component binds to it by
calling bindService(). A bound service offers a client-server
interface that allows components to interact with the service,send
requests,get results,and even do so across processes with
interprocess communication (IPC). A bound service runs only as long as
another application component is bound to it. Multiple components can
bind to the service at once,but when all of them unbind,the service
is destroyed.

提醒：您可以通过startService()启动服务以使其“无限期”运行并通过稍后调用onBind()绑定到它.

Intent it = new Intent(this,MyService.class);
startService(it); // Start the service.
bindService(it,this,0); // Bind to it.

如果您只想在Activity运行时运行此服务,则只需调用onBind()即可.

Intent it = new Intent(this,MyService.class);
bindService(it,0); // This will create the service and bind to it.

只需选择最适合您用例的方法,就可以了.
