Background timer stopped after 30 seconds on iOS 13.3 & 13.3.1

[iamtharin]

In iOS 13.3 & 13.3.1, when the count down timer is running in the background, it will be paused after 30s.

1. Start a 60s count down timer in the foreground.
2. After 10s, Put the app in the background (at 50s).
3. Wait for 40s, while the app is in the background.
4. Come to the foreground back.
5. The count down timer starts to run from 20s but expected to be run from 10s.

Guys... Do you have any idea?

@iamtharin I have fixed this with the following solution.

<key>UIBackgroundModes</key>
<array>
  <string>audio</string>
</array>

Add this in Info.Plist of your project and it will work

[iamtharin]

@Zilleabbas10 We have already added it but the issue is there :(

[gunduzcihat]

it doesn't work on iOS 12.1.4

my code:

 import React, { Component } from 'react';
 import {
 SafeAreaView,
  Text,
  StatusBar,
 TouchableHighlight,
 Alert,
 } from 'react-native';
  import BackgroundTask from 'react-native-background-task'
  import queueFactory from 'react-native-queue';
  import { Notifications } from "react-native-notifications";
  import BackgroundTimer from 'react-native-background-timer';

  export default class App extends Component {
   constructor(props) {
     super(props);
     this.state = {
       isOpened: false,
       queue: null
     }

    Notifications.registerRemoteNotifications();

 Notifications.events().registerNotificationReceivedForeground((notification: Notification, completion: (response: NotificationCompletion) => void) => {
  Alert.alert('Bildirimler gelecek', '', [{ text: 'Kapat' }]);
  console.warn("Notification Received - Foreground", notification.payload);
  // Calling completion on iOS with `alert: true` will present the native iOS inApp notification.
  completion({alert: true, sound: true, badge: true});
    });

Notifications.events().registerNotificationOpened((notification: Notification, completion: () => void, action: NotificationActionResponse) => {
  Alert.alert('bildirim açıldı!');
  console.warn("Notification opened by device user", notification.payload);
  completion();
});
    
    Notifications.events().registerNotificationReceivedBackground((notification: Notification, completion: (response: NotificationCompletion) => void) => {
  console.log("Notification Received - Background", notification.payload);

  // Calling completion on iOS with `alert: true` will present the native iOS inApp notification.
  completion({alert: true, sound: true, badge: false});
  });
   }

   componentDidMount() {
     BackgroundTimer.start();
     setInterval(() => {
       return Notifications.postLocalNotification({
         body: "Tahmini 15 dk sonra gelen bildirim: 10:15",
         title: "Local Notification Title",
         sound: "chime.aiff",
         silent: false,
         category: "SOME_CATEGORY",
         userInfo: { }
       }, 3);
     }, 1000 * 10);
     BackgroundTimer.stop();
   }


   render() {
     return (
       <>
       <StatusBar barStyle="dark-content" />
       <SafeAreaView style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center', }}>
           <Text>Deneme</Text>
       </SafeAreaView>
       </>
     )
   }
 }

@gunduzcihat @iamtharin did you guys find any solution for iOS?

[iamtharin]

We had to do a work around. What we did was, playing a silent audio while the app is in the background mode. This worked as expected.

[tal987]

@iamtharin can you show how did you do that please? how did you play silent sound?

[tal987]

@iamtharin this is what you did? BackgroundTimer.runBackgroundTimer(() => { var fakeSound = new Sound('', Sound.MAIN_BUNDLE, (error) => { if (error) { console.log('failed to load the sound'); } }) fakeSound.play((success) => { if (success) { } else { } }); console.log("App is Hii") }, 3000*10);

Any news on this issue?

Also reproduced on iOS 12.4.8

Nothing yet?

This worked for me, very strange, because i set location before but didn't work

[nguyentrannhan]

+1, stop after 30 seconds

I've tried this and got this message back from Apple.

Your app declares support for audio in the UIBackgroundModes key in your Info.plist, but we were unable to play any audible content when the app was running in the background.

When the user is going to the background, a silent audio will be played until the user comes back from the background to the foreground. That's all what we did.
