Is it possible to run events, if the app is in the background of my iPad? (The app is not closed, but in the background.)
I have an event that runs if my device gets an internet connection. When the app runs normally it works.
If i set up the internet connection and the app is in the background --> nothing.
Apps moving to the background are expected to put themselves into a quiescent state as quickly as possible so that they can be suspended by the system. If your app is in the middle of a task and needs a little extra time to complete that task, it can call the beginBackgroundTaskWithName:expirationHandler:
Please see documetation here
but if you want to run in background you have to jailbreak your iphone,iOS: Keep application running in background
