What about the iOS "background fetch" mode? Apple documentation seems to be quite generic here:
"...At appropriate times, the system gives background execution time to the apps..."
"...Only apps that provide important services to the user are allowed..."


1) Is there a time threshold (explicitly specified or empirical) within which the system passes control to the app in the background? (I could tolerate a 5-min interval)
2) Does anyone can apply for "background fetch" permission?
