Heyy, I'm building a music tracking app that logs a user's Apple Music plays to build a personal weekly chart. The core mechanic depends on accurately counting how many times a user plays each track. My current implementation uses MPMusicPlayerController.systemMusicPlayer with beginGeneratingPlaybackNotifications() and observes MPMusicPlayerControllerNowPlayingItemDidChange. This works well when the app is in the foreground or recently backgrounded, but notifications stop firing once iOS suspends the app. To get around this I've implemented: applicationDidBecomeActive - restarts the monitor and logs the currently playing track on every foreground Background fetch (performFetchWithCompletionHandler) - periodically wakes the app to log what's playing. This gives some coverage but misses plays that happen between background fetch intervals or when the user hasn't opened the app in a while. The result is an inaccurate play count which undermines the core feature. My questions: Is there a supported entitlement or capability that would allow an app to receive MPMusicPlayerController playback notifications while suspended? Is MusicKit or MediaPlayer the recommended framework for this use case, or is there a better API I'm not aware of? Are there any supported background modes that would keep playback notification delivery alive without requiring the app to be a full audio player? I've looked at MusicRecentlyPlayedRequest but it only returns the last 25 items with no play counts, so it can't tell me a track was played 10 times vs once. Any guidance on the right approach here would be really appreciated.
