Why do we make a Singleton Class for Retrofit Client?

What happens if we don't?

Solution

It is very simple,

Singleton class is used for this, so that only one object can be created at a time so this helps us in memory management.

If you don't make a class singleton then multiple instances will be created and if you don't trash those objects even by mistake then it will hold a lot of memory which is not good.
