I notice in the Standalone Settings for iOS in LC 9.5.1, a button
‘Background Execution’. If I click it, I get a warning that I don’t
really understand which suggests that LC doesn’t officially support
the feature. I’m not even sure if this feature is what I need.
Basically you have to save the user state repeatedly whenever anything
significant changes, in case the app goes dormant.
You actually need to do this regardless of having suspend/resume
messages as there's no guarantee that (1) you will get them and (2) you
will be able to execute them long enough to save all current state.
Both mergBgTask and mergNotify provide features to enable managing the
background task feature of iOS, and the suspend/resume notifications
though.
Warmest Regards
Mark.
