Are HealthKit HKObserverQuery background queries expected to work on iPad?

Hi,

Our app has an HKObserverQuery and calls enableBackgroundDelivery(...)

While running on an iPhone the background wakeup happens. While running on an iPad, it doesn't. The app can successfully query for data while in the foreground on an iPad.

Is background delivery expected to work on iPad?

Yes, they should work on iPad. Which data types are you trying to enable background delivery for?

Check if background app refresh is enabled for your app. And if it is and you're still seeing this, please file a feedback at https://feedback.apple.com

We're tracking stepCount, dietaryEnergyConsumed, activeEnergyBurned, appleExerciseTime, bodyMass, and sleepAnalysis.

We have the HealthKit "Background Delivery" checkbox set, and our iPhone app does get the wake up.
