Interface is used when There only abstract methods in the java interface not method body. It is used to achieve fully abstraction and multiple inheritance in Java.

It allows your class to have the functionality of other class without inheriting them. You can implement an interface to provide any specific functionality to your class.

Java doesn't support multiple inheritance. Interfaces are a way to do so. Also, for abstraction interfaces are used. For syntactical enforcement also, we use interfaces to make sure every class inheriting the interface, override the methods defined in the interface. For loose coupling also, we use in...

As you know that Java does not allow multiple inheritance. Sometime in our real life we need to use multiple inheritance for example an amphibious animal inherits the behaviours of Aquatic and Terrestrial animals together, i.e. can walk on land as well as swim in water. To show the relationships in Java we can use Interface, which allows a class to implement more than one interface at a time. Moreover if we want to make all methods as abstract, we can use interface and provide the freedom to end developer to write own definitions for all methods in the implementing (concrete) class. read less

It is a contract or behaviour which a class that implements that interface must implement. Another use it that it lets Java programs implement "Multiple inheritance of TYPE" which is the ability to implement more than one interface.
