I am trying to test an application that needs to run over an extended period of time and to aid initial testing I am trying to find a way to stop iOS moving the application to the background and suspending it. Ultimately I will add code to facilitate the use of multi-tasking but right now I just want to better test the core mechanics without iOS pushing it into the background all the time.
As long as you, the user, don’t stop this app, launch another app, or lock the device:
might keep your app running in the foreground. Don’t forget to re-enable the idle timer, or this could keep the device running until the battery is dead.
