Multitasking in iPhone 4,"application does not run in back ground" option in Xcode 3.2 info.plist

Question

In Xcode 3.2 in INFO.PLIST we have option "application does not run in back ground" when we check this box and run the application in iPhone 4 ...every minimization leads to exiting of app.

Doesn't this violate concept of Multi Tasking in iPhone 4? because every time we minimize the application the application restarts.

Can multi tasking be removed for iphone 4? which means i am changing device behavior, which i feel is changing device properties(HIG guide line says should not ) , Isn't it a rejection risk?

Answer 1

I feel that preventing an app from supporting multitasking doesn't violate Apple's guidelines. Apple should have felt it too. If you application doesn't actually need to run in background, you can very well prevent it by enabling "application does not run in back ground" key. I bet, Apple won't sue you.

Why would Apple even add a feature that violates its own rules?
