[jira] [Commented] (CB-10657) [wkWebView] wkWebView disables JS execution when app is backgrounded

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10657?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16278037#comment-16278037 ]

----------------------------

I'm having the same issue as Gaven Henry described. 
This causes a lot of plugins to be useless when the user simply "locks" their phone.

> When using wkWebView, Javascript execution is totally stopped after the app is backgrounded by the user. This is a major problem for apps using background modes as no javascript callback will be executed unless the app is either in the foreground or was already terminated by the user / OS.
> example: cordova-plugin-geofence's javascript callbacks will not trigger after the app was backgrounded but will however trigger if the app is in the foregrounded or was killed by the user / OS.
> UIView does not have this problem.
