Developing for Apple can be a PITA with their strict background processing rules, apps just terminate/stop working unless they fall under a special case. I get it but yeah.
edit: by terminate I don't mean crash, it just stops code execution an example is an active socket connection getting disconnected unless it's doing something like streaming audio
- bschwindHN 2y agoBut as a user I appreciate the strictness much more. I don't have to worry about closing background apps or having a bunch of crap running when I'm not actively using it. The OS (mostly) handles that for me, as it should.
- cosmic_cheese 2y agoAbsolutely. I’d rather have backgrounded apps unexpectedly closed from time to time than to find a big chunk of battery gone at a bad time because some app I don’t even care about has decided it needs to keep running and eating resources for some reason.
