# API Switching Overview
Due to the differences in the thread model and process model, certain APIs (marked with **FAModelOnly** in the SDK) can be used only in the FA model. When switching an application from the FA model to the stage model, replace the APIs marked with **FAModelOnly** in the application with the APIs supported in the stage model. This topic uses the switching of **startAbility()** as an example.

The FA model is supported by API version 8 and earlier versions, and the stage model is recommended since API version 9. The FA model and stage model have their respective components. The FA model provides three types of application components: PageAbility, ServiceAbility, and DataAbility. The stage model provides two types of application components: UIAbility and ExtensionAbility.
You cannot use both models for the development of an application (see the figure below). However, a device (system) can contain applications developed on both models (scenario 3 in the figure below). In this case, their components may interact with each other.

## When to Use
As the all-scenario, multi-device lifestyle becomes popular, users have an increasing number of devices. Each device provides users with what they need in a certain scenario. For example, watches allow users to view information in a timely manner, and smart TVs bring them an immersive watching experience. However, each device has its limitation, for example, typing text on a smart TV is frustrating as it is much more difficult than on a mobile device. If multiple devices can sense each other through a distributed OS and together form a super device, the strengths of each device can be fully exerted to provide a more natural and smoother distributed experience for users.

From the perspective of application development, multi-device collaboration enables different UIAbility or ServiceExtensionAbility components to run simultaneously or alternately on multiple devices to provide a complete service, or enables the same UIAbility and ServiceExtensionAbility component to run simultaneously on multiple devices to provide a complete service.

## Overview
[ServiceExtensionAbility](../reference/apis/js-apis-app-ability-serviceExtensionAbility.md) is an ExtensionAbility component of the SERVICE type that provides capabilities related to background services. It holds an internal [ServiceExtensionContext](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-serviceExtensionContext.md), through which a variety of APIs are provided for external systems.
[ServiceExtensionAbility](../reference/apis/js-apis-app-ability-serviceExtensionAbility.md) is an ExtensionAbility component of the service type that provides capabilities related to background services. It holds an internal [ServiceExtensionContext](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-serviceExtensionContext.md), through which a variety of APIs are provided for external systems.
In this document, the started ServiceExtensionAbility component is called the server, and the component that starts ServiceExtensionAbility is called the client.
A ServiceExtensionAbility can be started or connected by other components to process transactions in the background based on the request of the caller. System applications can call the [startServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextstartserviceextensionability) method to start background services or call the [connectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextconnectserviceextensionability) method to connect to background services. Third-party applications can call only **connectServiceExtensionAbility()** to connect to background services. The differences between starting and connecting to background services are as follows:

System applications can call the [startServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextstartserviceextensionability) method to start background services or call the [connectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextconnectserviceextensionability) method to connect to background services. Third-party applications can call only [connectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextconnectserviceextensionability) to connect to background services. The differences between starting and connecting to background services are as follows:
- **Starting**: In the case that AbilityA starts ServiceB, they are weakly associated. After AbilityA exits, ServiceB can still exist.
- **Starting**: In the case that AbilityA starts ServiceB, they are weakly associated. After AbilityA exits, ServiceB remains running.
- **Connecting**: In the case that AbilityA connects to ServiceB, they are strongly associated. After AbilityA exits, ServiceB also exits.
Note the following:
- If a ServiceExtensionAbility is started only by means of connecting, its lifecycle is controlled by the client. A new connection is set up each time the client calls the [connectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextconnectserviceextensionability) method. When the client exits or calls the [disconnectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextdisconnectserviceextensionability) method, the connection is disconnected. After all connections are disconnected, the ServiceExtensionAbility automatically exits.

A new connection is set up each time the client calls the [connectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextconnectserviceextensionability) method. When the client exits or calls the [disconnectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextdisconnectserviceextensionability) method, the connection is interrupted. After all connections are interrupted, the ServiceExtensionAbility automatically exits.
- Once a ServiceExtensionAbility is started by means of starting, it will not exit automatically. System applications can call the [stopServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextstopserviceextensionability) method to stop it.

## Starting a Background Service (for System Applications Only)
A system application uses the [startServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#abilitycontextstartserviceextensionability) method to start a background service. The [onRequest()](../reference/apis/js-apis-app-ability-serviceExtensionAbility.md#serviceextensionabilityonrequest) callback is invoked, and the **Want** object passed by the caller is received through the callback. After the background service is started, its lifecycle is independent of that of the client. In other words, even if the client is destroyed, the background service can still run. Therefore, the background service must be stopped by calling [terminateSelf()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-serviceExtensionContext.md#serviceextensioncontextterminateself) when its work is complete. Alternatively, another component can call [stopServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#abilitycontextstopserviceextensionability) to stop the background service.

Either a system application or a third-party application can connect to a ServiceExtensionAbility (specified in the **Want** object) through [connectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#abilitycontextconnectserviceextensionability). The [onConnect()](../reference/apis/js-apis-app-ability-serviceExtensionAbility.md#serviceextensionabilityonconnect) callback is invoked, and the **Want** object passed by the caller is received through the callback. In this way, a persistent connection is established.

The ServiceExtensionAbility component returns an IRemoteObject in the **onConnect()** callback. Through this IRemoteObject, you can define communication interfaces for RPC interaction between the client and server. Multiple clients can connect to the same background service at the same time. After a client finishes the interaction, it must call [disconnectServiceExtensionAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#abilitycontextdisconnectserviceextensionability) to disconnect from the service.

By subscribing to the changes of system environment variables, the application can detect the changes in a timely manner and process the changes accordingly, providing better user experience. For example, when the system language changes, the application can display the UI in the new language; when the user rotates the device to landscape or portrait mode, the application can re-arrange the UI to adapt to the new screen orientation and size.

- In the stage model, all the UIAbility components in a process share one ArkTS engine instance. When using **globalThis**, do not store objects with the same name. For example, if UIAbilityA and UIAbilityB use **globalThis** to store two objects with the same name, the object stored earlier will be overwritten.
- This problem does not occur in the FA model because each UIAbility component uses an independent engine.
- The lifecycle of an object bound to **globalThis** is the same as that of the ArkTS engine instance. You are advised to assign the value **null** after using the object to minimize memory usage.

## Using AppStorage or LocalStorage for Data Synchronization
ArkUI provides AppStorage and LocalStorage to implement application- and UIAbility-level data synchronization, respectively. Both solutions can be used to manage the application state, enhance application performance, and improve user experience. The AppStorage is a global state manager and is applicable when multiple UIAbilities share the same state data. The LocalStorage is a local state manager that manages state data used inside a single UIAbility. They help you control the application state more flexibly and improve the maintainability and scalability of applications. For details, see [State Management of Application-Level Variables](../quick-start/arkts-application-state-management-overview.md).

Generally, the user only needs to perform a general operation (for example, selecting a document application to view the document content) to start the UIAbility of another application. In this case, the [implicit Want launch mode](want-overview.md#types-of-want) is recommended. In this mode, the system identifies a matched UIAbility and starts it based on the **want** parameter of the initiator UIAbility.
There are two ways to start **UIAbility**: [explicit and implicit](want-overview.md).
- Explicit Want launch: This mode is used to start a determined UIAbility component of an application. You need to set **bundleName** and **abilityName** of the target application in the **want** parameter.
- Explicit Want launch is used to start a determined UIAbility component of an application. You need to set **bundleName** and **abilityName** of the target application in the **want** parameter.
- Implicit Want launch: The user selects a UIAbility to start based on the matching conditions. That is, the UIAbility to start is not determined (the **abilityName** parameter is not specified). When [startAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextstartability) is called, the want parameter specifies a series of parameters such as **entities** and **actions**. **entities** provides category information of the target UIAbility, such as the browser or video player. **actions** specifies the common operations to perform, such as viewing, sharing, and application details. Then the system analyzes the **want** parameter to find the right UIAbility to start. You usually do not know whether the target application is installed and what **bundleName** and **abilityName** of the target application are. Therefore, implicit Want launch is usually used to start the UIAbility of another application.

## Starting UIAbility with Window Mode Specified (for System Applications Only)
By specifying the window mode when starting the UIAbility of an application, the application can be displayed in different window modes, which can be full-screen, floating window, or split-screen.
By specifying the window mode when starting the UIAbility of an application, you can have the application displayed in the specified window mode, which can be full-screen, floating window, or split-screen.
In full-screen mode, an application occupies the entire screen after being started. Users cannot view other windows or applications. This mode is suitable for an application that requires users to focus on a specific task or UI.
In floating window mode, an application is displayed on the screen as a floating window after being started. Users can easily switch to other windows or applications. The mode is suitable for an application that requires users to process multiple tasks at the same time.
In floating window mode, an application is displayed on the screen as a floating window after being started. Users can easily switch to other windows or applications. This mode is suitable for an application that allows users to process multiple tasks at the same time.
In split-screen mode, two applications occupy the entire screen, with one on the left or in the upper part of the screen and the other on the right or in the lower part. This mode helps users improve multi-task processing efficiency.
In split-screen mode, two applications occupy the entire screen, side by side, horizontally or vertically. This mode helps users improve multi-task processing efficiency.
The window mode is specified by the **windowMode** field in the [StartOptions](../reference/apis/js-apis-app-ability-startOptions.md) parameter of [startAbility()](../reference/apis/js-apis-inner-application-uiAbilityContext.md#uiabilitycontextstartability).

## Starting a Specified Page of UIAbility
A UIAbility component can have multiple pages. When it is started in different scenarios, different pages can be displayed. For example, when a user jumps from a page of a UIAbility component to another UIAbility, you want to start a specified page of the target UIAbility. This section describes how to specify a startup page and start the specified page when the target UIAbility is started for the first time or when the target UIAbility is not started for the first time.

### Specifying a Startup Page
When the initiator UIAbility starts another UIAbility, it usually needs to redirect to a specified page. For example, FuncAbility contains two pages: Index (corresponding to the home page) and Second (corresponding to function A page). You can configure the specified page URL in the **want** parameter by adding a custom parameter to **parameters** in **want**.

# UIAbility Lifecycle
## Overview
When a user opens, switches, and returns to an application, the UIAbility instances in the application transit in their different states. The UIAbility class provides a series of callbacks. Through these callbacks, you can know the state changes of the UIAbility instance, for example, being created or destroyed, or running in the foreground or background.

In this callback, you can release unused resources or perform time-consuming operations such as saving the status.
For example, an application needs to use positioning, and the application has requested the positioning permission from the user. Before the UI is displayed, you can enable positioning in the **onForeground()** callback to obtain the location information.
For example, there is an application that requires location access and has obtained the location permission from the user. Before the UI is displayed, you can enable location in the **onForeground()** callback to obtain the location information.
When the application is switched to the background, you can disable positioning in the **onBackground()** callback to reduce system resource consumption.

# UIAbility Component Overview
# UIAbility Overview
## Overview
UIAbility is a type of application component that provides the UI for user interaction.
UIAbility is a type of application component that provides the UI for user interactions.
The following design philosophy is behind UIAbility:
1. Native support for [cross-device migration](hop-cross-device-migration.md) and [multi-device collaboration](hop-multi-device-collaboration.md) at the application component level
2. Support for multiple device types and window forms
2. Support for multiple device types and window modes

The UIAbility division principles and suggestions are as follows:
UIAbility is the basic unit of scheduling in OpenHarmony and provides a window for applications to draw the UI. An application can contain one or more UIAbility components. For example, for a payment application, you can use separate UIAbility components to carry the entry and payment functionalities.
UIAbility is the basic unit scheduled by the system and provides a window for applications to draw UIs. An application can contain one or more UIAbility components. For example, for a payment application, you can use two UIAbility components to carry the entry and payment functionalities.
Each UIAbility component instance is displayed as a mission in Recents.
Each UIAbility component instance is displayed as a mission in the system application Recents.
You can develop a single UIAbility or multiple UIAbilities for your application based on service requirements.
- If you want only one mission to be displayed in Recents, use one UIAbility and multiple pages.
- If you want your application to be displayed as one mission in Recents, use one UIAbility and multiple pages.
- If you want multiple missions to be displayed in Recents or multiple windows to be opened simultaneously, use multiple UIAbilities.
- If you want your application to be displayed as multiple missions in Recents or multiple windows to be opened simultaneously, use multiple UIAbilities.
