I will extend a little bit on MobiDevCom answer.

I haven't found a good publicly known solution.

The direct approach (trying to open something from background using all kinds of public or private API) ends up requiring all kinds of entitlements. I tried at least dozen of things about a year ago and reverse engineered quite a lot of iOS components.

The only idea which I found was usage of MDM Guided mode (however, a device needs to be supervised and enrolled into MDM for that).

BTW. Here is the question which I asked - Show some UI from background in audio player or VOIP app on iOS
