How to add application in Background app refresh list

Hello, how can I add another application (for example Skype) in the list of Background app refresh? I have just 5 applications there. Is it even possible to add some more in this list? Thank You in advance for Your reply.

I don't think you can. I believe apps have to be written to take advantage of background app refresh. Your best bet would be to contact the developer.

Background app refresh list incomplete

Some of my apps I use for tracking training are not in my BAR list and therefore cut off when in use but in the background. Any ideas how I get them to appear in the list and therefore switched on? In the app in settings the BAR toggle isn't there either. Weird

Thanks for the reply James. The weird thing is these apps did have BAR functionality on iOS 7 x. Polar Beat, map my run aren't there yet strava is there. Perhaps I need the developers to catch up.

Apps didnt appear in Background App Refresh

Hi all,
I'm using Iphone 5, after updated to ios 8 and later, my apps (nike running & endomondo) didnt appear in the Background App Refresh list. So that i cannot use Nike Running & Endomondo since the apps keep asking me to enable them in Background App Refresh.
Is anyone having same issue here? Need solution on this or is it because of ios 8?
Thanks
Safuan

I have this issue as well for every running app I've tried (i.e. Endomondo, MapMyRun, RunKeeper) since the iOS 8 update. I've filed support tickets for both Endomondo and MapMyRun after @AppleSupport told me to contact the app developers directly. As of ~10 days ago, both support teams told me they're aware of the issue and working toward resolution. Nothing since then.

How often do Background App Refreshes occur in iOS 7?

In iOS 7, some apps can now update their data even when the app is not open. This feature is called "Background App Refresh". How often does each app update their content using this method? Is it up to the app to determine the frequency, or does iOS 7 limit them?

Why does there need to be a limit imposed? Perhaps it'd be appropriate for some app to update once a minute.
I can just imagine the havoc that would be caused if Apple limited turn-by-turn navigation apps to a 15-min update window, just as an example.

Facebook not on background app refresh

Yes we both have the latest version of facebook and I've also tried deleting the app and reinstalling.

How to add adverts in adnroid app

Hi,

Background app refresh disabled

Hello all,
I love running, and therefore I've used Nike+ running for many years now. Currently I use an iPhone 5s, with iOs 8.1 When starting the app, the message "Background App Refresh Disabled, Open settings and enable Background App Refresh so that we can track your runs in the background". However, when I look this up in settings there is no Nike+ in that list to activate.So, At this moment, I'm no longer able to use this app.
What's wrong? How come that my girlfriend (iPhone 5C, iOs 8.1) doesn't have this problem?
I've tried:
- Reinstalling the app
- Downloading the app on my phone with my girlfriends Apple ID
Anyone out there with a possible solution?
Bye

Thought I'd reply to this seen as no one else has, I am also experiencing very similar problems with my 4s and by the looks of it is it's across all handsets. I've never had any battery issues with my iPhone even 7.0.6 was fine, but since updating to 7.1 the battery is ticking down very fast. I fully charged in the morning and left it in my locker all day at work when I got my hands on it it's gone down to 52% just on its own!!
I really hope they sort this out fast the irony is 7.1 was supposed to help battery life!

Are your location services on?

Cannot turn on background app refresh

Hi all,
I need to turn on background app refresh, however I cannot.
I had turn it all off for sometime, but I keep on missing out whatsapp messages, that is hurting my work.
I want to turn it back on to activate whatsapp.
To my surprise, I found that I cannot turn it back on. It simply refuses to turn on no matter how many times I pressed it.
Any advice?
Thanks thanks,
Gemshin

Hi gemshin,
If you are having issues with your iPhone being unable to turn on background app refresh, you should take a look at this article -
iOS: Understanding multitasking
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4211
In particular see this section -
If an app doesn't respond to your input, or doesn't perform as expected, do the following, testing after each step:
Check for app updates.
Force the app to close.
Restart your device.
Update your iOS device.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Need help understanding Background App Refresh

I'm trying to understand how Background App Refresh works. Whether it is on or off, whenever I switch to another app it will reload the page/app. Games start back at the home screen, webpages reload, all my typing (notes etc) disappear, it's as if I'm opening the page/app for the first time over and over. I don't keep more than a few things open at once, so I'm not a multitask hog. I assumed that with the Background App Refresh on it would keep the things open and current. Is it a RAM issue? Why do things keep reloading? Even if it's only Safari with one tab and I'm typing an email, when I go back to Safari the page reloads and I need to find what I was looking at again...
Anyone else experience this? iPhone 6 Plus with the latest iOS.

This is the key phrase from that page: "Some apps can continue to run in the background. You can allow these apps to refresh themselves by turning on Background App Refresh. This settings lets apps check for new content and download updates, or retrieve updated content in the background when they receive push notifications."
Only some apps can retrieve updated data through background app refresh (BAR). *All* apps can enter multitasking and be opened quickly...but this is NOT the idea behind BAR. BAR capable apps have the additional ability to refresh their data & content if they are enabled to do so. Just because an app is in multitasking, it doesn't mean it's capable of background app refresh.
If that doesn't clarify things, check out the following page:

What is a memory alert and how do I shut down background apps?

What is a memory alert and how do I shut down background apps?

It's when the internal memory doesn't have enough space to operate apps or the phone. You should do two things.
1) Double-tap your Home button. You should see a row of apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap on one and hold down until it wiggles. Hit the red x in the upper right of the icon. Do this for all icons. Don't worry - you're not deleting the Apps, you're just shutting them down from multitasking
2) Do a hard reset of your iPhone. Hold down the Home button and Sleep button. Keep both held down until you see an Apple logo.
This should clear the memory.
Good luck!

I updated to ios8 and tried to use Health Application. In Sources I get a message that other applications will show up on the list as they request permission to update your data. How does it happen? No apps are listed on my Sources section

I updated to ios8 and tried to use Health Application. In Sources I get a message that other applications will show up on the list as they request permission to update your data. How does it happen? No apps are listed on my Sources section

I have an answer to my question. There is a bug in IOS8 that prevents third party applications to talk to the Health Application. Apple is trying to fix it ASAP

Background app refresh not working mail app

I have an Iphone 4 with the latest IOS7. Background app refresh is on but it's not working, at least for Mail and Mailbox app. I already tried reseting all settings and restarting.
This is what I do to test if it's working.
1) I send myself a test email
2) I wait to see if I get the badge count update (I get it in mailbox but I dont get it in Mail app)
3) I put the phone in airplane mode
4) I open the apps to see If the test email was download while I was on wifi and it's not there.
Also it's very strange that my mail app badge count doesn't get updated...

So here is what I ended up doing.
I did a fresh restore and logged into my icloud. I waited for all my calendars, contacts, reminders, ect. to sync and turned off icloud but selected the option to keep that data on my phone. Then I created a new icloud account and waited for the new data to sync to my new icloud. After that I performed another fresh restore but this time I logged into my new icloud. I downloaded "Newsify" again and waited for it to do the background app refresh and it did :). It turns out that it stopped doing it and it was the app the whole time of just buggy ios 7 so I restored from the backup I did before all of this and end of sotrie.

"Background App Refresh" does not refresh

I have trouble with my Podcasts app (it crashes when I open it) and I noticed the following bug:
If I go in "Setting > Podcasts", there is the option "Background App Refresh" switched on, and I can switch it off.
I switch it off.
I go back to setting and then again to "Setting > Podcasts", and the option "Background App Refresh" is still on!
Perhaps it is related to the fact that this app is not working anymore?
iPhone 5s
iOS 8.2
Podcasts 2.2 (740)

I thought the problem was solved after letting it update all the apps and sit for a while on a wifi network where I have unlimited data... Unfortunately when I tethered today it sucked down 40 megs with zero apps open. I turned off the wifi hotspot before it used more data.
What is it downloading???? This is really frustrating. I wish I could put ios 6 on this ipad.
