Strava & Background App refresh on iPhone 6s.....
I might be searching wrong or something but just not a whole lot on this out there.
I have Background App Refresh turned "off" on my iPhone. (6s running ios 9.0.2)
I also had location services turned off before I selected just a few apps to allow using it.....(Strava being one).
But then on my ride today it gave me a warning about Strava wanting Background App Refresh turned on. (I didn't and it recorded my entire ride just fine)
I'm still not 100% sure I understand exactly what "Background App Refresh" does. It's almost like this in my head:
Push
Fetch
Background App Refresh
.....are almost doing the same thing just said 3 different ways.
