iPhone background files downloading

Is there any way we can download files on iPhone on background? I.e. I want to start the application, specify files to be downloaded, then send application to the background and later, when data are downloaded get some notification?

Regards, STeN

Depending on your application;

  • You can start a background thread (10 minutes maximum execution time, or until the system decides to kill your application), this is possible for all applications.
  • You can use Newsstand to get even more background time (semi-unlimited). But this is only usable for digital magazines.
