Question

1. User has my app open.
2. They hit the home button, resulting in my app closing and going into a “saved state”.
3. Users uses his device for other things.
4. User opens up my app again, resuming from where he left off.

How, in my code, do I detect that the user has resumed from the saved state? Is there a specific iOS4 multitasking NSNotification that I can attach to?

Implement applicationDidBecomeActive: in your app delegate.
