I'm looking into NB6 to work around an issue but unclear on if it will solve my problem:
The issue is that I need a background GPS-position receiver to measure distance, but it's sending notifications to keep itself alive in case the OS kills it. I don't want the audible ding for that notifications, but I need the audible ding for my other application notifications, and Android settings is all or nothing.
- Looking at NB6 code quickly, I see it's using Java objects. Will it work on iOS?
- Also, will this send notifications when the app is not in the foreground, or when the screen is off? Asking because I don't see what in the Service class would trigger the notifications.
