Problem is I don’t think this ever fires. From what I can see, the app does not 
go into the background on these devices (certainly not on the CEO’s iPad). I 
know this because in my DidEnterBackground, I stop my timer – however I can get 
him to close the lid on his iPad, and it continues to call the server in the 
timer events. Later versions of the OS (5 and up) do not do this – they put the 
app in the background.

Hi,

Anyone know of a way to detect that the screen is locked on iOS? In 5 and up, 
once a device is locked, the app is pushed to the background. Not so on iOS 
prior to 5 – but I would like to know when the user has locked the device so I 
know to take different actions from the server. I’ve googled and come up empty 
– am suspecting there is no way to tell?

Dino
