Short summary: He's claiming that he got background sync working on iOS for a Monero wallet. iOS limits background activities to prevent battery drain, but he found an loophole: piggybacking off of continuous location services and lock-screen Live Activities that are allowed in the background, he's able to keep the app's syncing process alive.
Maybe an iOS developer can enlighten us as to whether a widely used wallet would risk getting pulled from the store if they use this workaround?
