You can use the background mode plugin, here you can find the plugin

After that you have finished with the installation of the plugin you can enable the background mode, it means that the app don't will die until you disable the background mode again.

Disclaimer: this solution can be expensive in terms of battery usage

app.component.ts

import {Component} from '@angular/core';
import {Platform} from 'ionic-angular';
import {BackgroundMode} from '@ionic-native/background-mode';

@Component({
   templateUrl: 'app.component.html'
})
export class AppComponent {

   constructor(private plt: Platform, private backgroundMode: BackgroundMode) {
      this.plt.ready().then(() => {
         this.backgroundMode.enable();
         // start an interval with a delay of 30 min
         setInterval(() => {
            console.log('background on'):
         }, 30 * 60000);
      });
   }
}

This is just a sample code, remember to handle how you will turn off the background mode and dispose the interval.
