Answer 1

You can use BroadcastReceiver component for this purpose. Using this you can detect various events of your device like booting.

To Detect Booting process you need to give permission in AndroidManifest.xml as below,

Then you need to create a BrodacastReceiver which will handle this,

In the onReceive() method the corresponding BroadcastReceiver would then start the event,

public class MyReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {

    @Override
    public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
        Intent service = new Intent(context, WordService.class);
        context.startService(service);
    }
}
