Thank you for the advice. I will try my best to not badmouth my former manager.

> iOS apps are essentially SIGKILLed if they’re swiped up on in the app switcher.

Sorry, I worded that poorly. To be clear, he use the word literally to describe it. Which I think is pretty misleading. iOS still calls the delegate method (and probably some other stuff) beforehand.




Not if the user swipes up on the app from the app switcher: you’ll literally be sent a SIGKILL from the OS.


Oh. Wow. I feel dumb now.
