Hi there. I was able to successfully implement Terra's background delivery for iOS in swift: I added the line Terra.setUpBackgroundDelivery()
to the AppDelegate
file as indicated on the API reference. It seems that background delivery only fires when the app is open. Tested on iOS version 17.3 and TerraiOS version 1.6. How can I troubleshoot this issue??

Hey there
Have you completed the following steps:
.xcodeproj
file in XCode, navigating to Signing & Capabilities
and pressing + Capability.xcodeproj
> Info
and create/edit the list Permitted background task scheduler identifiers
and add the element co.tryterra.data.post.request

Hey, thanks for the response, but all those steps have been completed. I also updated the background modes capability to have background fetch enabled but still nothing. What else can I do. Just to provide more detail, the setup works until the app is closed on my phone - even after several hours no events come through.

On your mobile device, have you enabled background app refresh. This can be done by navigating to Settings > General > Background App refresh
and ensuring Background App refresh
is on and scrolling to your app to check that it is enabled for you. Also, background sync is disabled when the user's device is on Low power mode

Hey again. That seems to have fixed it. Background app refresh was not enabled for my app. Is there any way to get around the low power mode issue?

Unfortunately, the Low power mode restriction is enforced by iOS and affects all apps that require background refresh
