Here's my question. In this (somewhat ungrounded in Android reality) article the poster makes the claim that on iOS, you 'just get' a few seconds to finish off everything.
This does not seem like a sustainable model. If my app and the next app a user launches are both memory heavy, I expect my app to be killed to make space. How does this process work on iOS?
Also, nobody really seems to understand how amazing Intents are before they use Android :)
You get notified when the user switches apps away from yours, so at that point you quicky get your shit together and assume you could be killed at any time.
