Hi Everyone,

I noticed that pressing the Home button on the iPhone simulator causes the app to stop running.

Can you tell me how to make the app continue to run like most other Apple apps when the user presses the Home button?

Maybe there is a way to programmatically go to the home screen but leave the app running.

A sample stack would also be appreciated.

Thanks

This should clarify the real situation on iOS

Hi,

I tried to figure out the Apple link but I don't know anything about the c language.

So there is no way to make a simple alarm clock app with LiveCode?

I hope it can be done.

Wait a sec rleiman,
This is the same question you asked in your post about :15 past the hour alarm.
You got the same answer.

rleiman... have a look at 'local' and/or 'push' notifications to solve your problem here...

Was it funny?

Hi,

I was able to get the 15 past the hour logic working but the app stopped running when I pressed the home button while the app was still running and the app did not beep when 15 past the hour was reached.

Sorry if I asked the same question in different ways. For me it's frustrating because there are so many alarm apps in the App Store and those apps still run when the user presses the home button. I hope RunRev has a sample alarm app stack I can look at and see how everyone is doing the alarm apps.

That's funny.
