We have a micromobility / scooter sharing app. Apple apparently introduced some sort of new feature some bikesharing apps' vehicles are shown in Maps. Similar to car rental services or public transports, we now see those bikes inside our app. Which we don't like. Because they are our competitor company. We tried disabling .carRental, .parking, .publicTransport etc options for mapView's pointOfInterestFilter option. None of them worked. We had to do .excludeAll and provided a version to our client to test with this. I just don't understand how this ridesharing app information comes and how it is shown in our app. But we need to find a solution to this. This feature doesn't make any sense to our company.

Hello, We have an iOS application (navigation/mobility app) that we need to have it stay connected to TCP server even app is in background. We tried disabling screen lock. We tried having location permission as "always". But it is not consistent. Usually, after 15 minutes, TCP connection is disconnected. We are unable to run code on app's side if it is in the background. Our other workaround option is similar to WhatsApp or what every other companies / our rivals in the market do. Have a VOIP feature, use voip notification to wake up the app. But we really don't want to do that sort of thing. Any feedback and any ideas are welcomed. Thanks.
