Not true since Android Oreo. Long running background Service execution (without a foreground notification) has been dead for a while. Most of the useful system-wide config change updates (implicit Broadcasts) got killed as well. Basically, only Google (or GCM/Firebase Messaging) gets to do timely push notifications. You can try to roll your own MQTT server, but there’s a good chance the OS will kill your Service, in which case you would have to poll every 15 minutes with JobScheduler/WorkManager, with no guarantee that background task would even get run every 15 min.
