Is there a way to add background operations for the app? I need to do a regular polling of a REST service and notify the user.

You can set a timer in JavaScript and then invoke the service like this: http://docs.tiggzi.com/documentation/...
Hmmm, but when the window goes to the background, neither iOS nor Android fires any javascript timers (this is my understanding)
I think so..
So, then only a manual refresh is possible. Anyway thank you for the response.
What's possible -- you can do anything the mobile browser will support and what the underlying OS will support.
Thank you Max. Can you also help me out on this topic, it's kind of blocking my app development completely - https://getsatisfaction.com/tiggzi/to...
