iOS custom idle timer [duplicate]

Question

In an iOS enterprise app i need to implement an idle timeout. The application's idleTimerDisabled property is set to yes, that's not what I want.

It's a journal type of application for an exhibition, in which the app should jump back to the first page after a specific time. Is there some way that doesn't need me to adjust each touch/gesture callback with a function that resets the timer?

Answer 1

You can override UIApplication::sendEvent to reset the timer, e.g. see the accepted answer here:
