Mastery of the iPod Starts Here
First iOS 4 Multitasking Apps Appear in App Store
- Background audio – Allows your app to play audio continuously.
- Voice over IP – Users can now receive VoIP calls and have conversations while using another app.
- Background location – Navigation apps can now continue to guide users who are using other apps
- Push notifications – Receive alerts from your remote servers even when your app isn’t running.
- Local notifications – Your app can now alert users of scheduled events and alarms in the background, no servers required.
- Task finishing – If your app is in mid-task when your customer leaves it, the app can now keep running to finish the task.
- Fast app switching – This will allow users to leave your app and come right back to where they were when they left – no more having to reload the app.
It seems as if most iOS 4 apps should and will and will implement ‘fast app switching’ which allows you to switch in and out of an app without having to restart it.
Apple will distribute iOS 4 June 21st.
