Running code when app is terminated. Xcode 12

I'm trying to run some code to refresh data and serve a local notification on iOS 14. I'm using Xcode 12 and all the help I find online is based on a structure having an appdelegate.swift swift file with several functions depending on the state of the app.

In Xcode 12 the appdelegate file isn't there anymore. How do I proceed, I don't know where to start. Does anybody know what to do?

Your issue is probably that you set up the project to use SwiftUI. You need to create an AppDelegate object that implements UIApplicationDelegate protocol:

class AppDelegate: NSObject, UIApplicationDelegate {
    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
        print("Your code here")
        return true
    }

    // Implement other methods that you require.

}

On your SwiftUI file, add this line to tell iOS who's gonna be the listener for the AppDelegate's methods:

@main
struct SomeApp: App {
    @UIApplicationDelegateAdaptor(AppDelegate.self) var appDelegate

    var body: some Scene {
        WindowGroup {
            ContentView()
        }
    }
}

You can then follow by checking Apple's documentation on how to use background app modes.
