Support iOS BGHealthResearchTaskRequest

Open tony-ditchlabs opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. In iOS 17+, there is now support for background tasks that are related to health research. These background tasks seem to be given additional priority and resources, and run more reliably. This would solve the unreliable issues that developers of health research apps run into on iOS. From Apple's docs:

BGHealthResearchTaskRequest

Your app can use BGHealthResearchTaskRequest to launch in the background and process data for a health research study in which the user participates.

Describe the solution you'd like Support for iOS BGHealthResearchTaskRequest, which extends BGProcessingTaskRequest.

Describe alternatives you've considered On iOS, there aren't really any alternatives, other than using the less reliable approach we were stuck with for iOS <17
