Question

Is it possible for my iOS app to keep running code when a user kill my app? Now with latest iOS version (9.x), can we achieve this?

My app needs to send GPS locations to the server even a user kill this app.

Now my app keeps running in Background Mode. But not running after my app is killed.

Answer 1

No. If you could figure out how to keep things going after the user force quits/terminates your app, that app continuing to run after they are killed would certainly be considered a security risk (and performance hit) by Apple and wouldn't be allowed on the app store.

You might be thinking of Background App Refresh , but even if apps that utilize BAR are killed, they don't refresh either .
