Question

I need to find a way to detect when a device has been locked, or else a way to detect when the device has been unlocked, and sent straight to the app where it left off. Is there some method like:

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActiveAfterLockScreen:(UIApplication *)application

Answer 1

For detecting when phone is being unlocked and application is becoming active again, there is

- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication *)application

method.

When the device is locked, a method

- (void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application

is called.

Both methods belong to the UIApplicationDelegate protocol.

See UIApplicationDelegate Protocol Reference.
