iOS Question Fetch download is not working for me

[Humberto]

I write a smal app to test fetch download but the "Private Sub Application_FetchDownload" was called once in Iphone 4S ( IOS 9.3.5 ) and in an Iphone 6 ( IOS 11.2.6 ) never.

The app is in attach if someone can help me.

I´m trying to find a alternative way to receive an alarm.

The main.m is saved in Files/Special

Worth testing without the call to Sleep.

Test it in release mode and leave your phone connected to the charger. It can take 30 minutes (or more) for it to fire.

I put the sleep command because the only time that I receive a notification with Iphone 4S I didn´t see the LOG.

The program is running all night in an Iphone 4S and Iphone 6 and I receive no notification.

Both today are connected to power and after 1 hour I get no notification.

In both case the software is running in a release mode

After more than one hour that both phone ( 4S and 6 ) is connected to power I received 3 times whith less than 10 minutes between them in Iphone 6 but no one in Iphone 4S.

I´ll wait for one more and disconnect from power to see if I receive any.
