Maybe I'm remembering wrong but didn't the iPhone not have multitasking for apps for a long time as well. I recall that essentially the OS did something like a snapshot of every app when one switched.
- Moto7451 4y agoThe iPhone always had multitasking. What it didn’t allow was background processing. When selected again, your app would be suspended and allowed to run again or be launched fresh based on memory pressure.
- cycomanic 4y agoAs someone else said Symbian also was capable of multitasking, it was the frameworks that did not allow is. Can someone explain the practical difference for someone programming an app between the iphone and symbian limitations?
