I have to write an app that listens to some events and waits for some conditions to be met.

 

Possible?

 

How, any links pls?

 

Thanks

You can definitely write an app that will be listenting to *some* events... bps navigator events for example are always delivered to an app -)

What events are you looking for and define 'background app'

Re: How to write background apps, listeners in BB10 Native

I've been making background apps for BBOS

 

For example an app auto starts with phone bootup and listens to incoming text messages. Whenver a message arrives, it is sent to the backup.

 

Can we do this here?

Or a timer application that executes something at specific times/intervals?
