Is there any way to do background tasks in React Native other than react-native-background-task?

I'm trying to do in my React Native App that each X min the app fetch some data of my application included if the app is closed. Or more similar, each X min I want to save a value in the AsyncStorage.

It suppose that the react-native-background-task does that but, unfortunately, the project is abandoned with a lot of errors and bugs that make using it unviable.

Is there any other way to do it?

For android, background service works fine which has its RN implementation in form of Headless JS task. For iOS, there is no such ready made library to be used in RN. iOS being restrictive doesn't allows applications to take on the job queue control of OS straight away, though in native OS API, there are ways such things as per the business requirements.

You can refer this to better understand which option to use for your use-case and can come up with a bridging module for RN as well.
