Title: Running timers in background of BLE app

Nick, 

Core Bluetooth will allow you to run in the background in order for the app to handle events from Core Bluetooth. It does not give the App a 'carte blanche' to run in the background. Meaning, timers will not fire when the App is in the background. 

Thanks,
Joakim

Local notifications won't by themselves keep your app perpetually alive and running in the background.  They will give you an opportunity to do a short burst of processing when they fire, but then your app will go right back to sleep.  If just accomplishing this meets the original posters needs, then it may be something of interest.

Hi All,
I have an app that is currently scanning for BLE devices in the background. This part is working well, but I now need to trigger an event every 15 minutes or so. If the app subscribes to bluetooth-central, can Timers be run in the background? If not does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks in advance for any information.
