    Use local notifications sparingly. An application can arrange for local notifications to be sent at specific times,

    whether the application is suspended, running in the background, or not running at all. For the best user experience,

    avoid pestering people with too many notifications.

    When appropriate, finish user-initiated tasks in the background. When people initiate a task, they usually

    expect it to finish even if they switch away from your application. If your application is in the middle of performing a

    userinitiated task that does not re!uire additional user interaction, you should complete it in the background before

    suspending.
