Does Background Refresh matter for apps which do push notifications? For instance, would I get Dark Sky notifications and the like or would that all be shut down? I have no reason to distrust Dark Sky specifically, but I'm weighing the inconvenience of shutting off Background Refresh globally. There are some apps I DO think it might be convenient to have running and doing their thing, even when I'm not actively using them.

Weird. I'd shut off a bunch of them at some point months and months ago, and just re-checked and they're still off. Did you go through a big re-install or something?Wow, I just went to see which apps had background refresh enabled and they were ALL on!
I'm guessing the latest IOS update reset them, like it did my WiFi, bluetooth etc.
