saveEventually - Save when application is minimised with Parse - ios

Question

I am using saveEventually in the section of code below. The issue is, saveEventually doesn't work when the application is minimised and reopened, only when the application is completely closed and reopened. Is there any way to counteract this?
-(void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateToLocation:(CLLocation *)newLocation fromLocation:(CLLocation *)oldLocation {
// Generate Random Number
int random = arc4random_uniform(1000000000);
// Updates Location
NSLog(#"Location: %#",newLocation);
CLLocation *curentLocation = newLocation;
if (curentLocation != nil) {
// Submit through Parse
PFObject *object = [PFObject objectWithClassName:#"Issue"];
object[#"ID"] = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%i",random];
object[#"Latitude"] = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.8f",curentLocation.coordinate.latitude];
object[#"Longitude"] = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.8f",curentLocation.coordinate.longitude];
object[#"Signal"] = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",_avgNumber];
[object saveEventually];
// Update Text Fields
self.latitude.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.8f",curentLocation.coordinate.latitude];
self.longitude.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%.8f",curentLocation.coordinate.longitude];
self.signal.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",_avgNumber];
}
// Stop the Location Update
[manager stopUpdatingLocation];
}

saveEventually will work under both of the conditions you described. From Parse: "Objects saved with this method will be stored locally in an on-disk cache until they can be delivered to Parse.
They will be sent immediately if possible. Otherwise, they will be sent the next time a network connection is available."
It should work, but as a temporary workaround if it's not, you could check for connectivity before saving the object. If you have a internet connection, use saveInBackground, if not use saveEventually. So something like this:
if (isNetworkAvailable)
[object saveInBackground];
else
[object saveEventually];
- (BOOL)isNetworkAvailable
{
CFNetDiagnosticRef dReference;
dReference = CFNetDiagnosticCreateWithURL (NULL, (__bridge CFURLRef)[NSURL URLWithString:#"www.apple.com"]);
CFNetDiagnosticStatus status;
status = CFNetDiagnosticCopyNetworkStatusPassively (dReference, NULL);
CFRelease (dReference);
if ( status == kCFNetDiagnosticConnectionUp )
{
NSLog (#"Connection is Available");
return YES;
}
else
{
NSLog (#"Connection is down");
return NO;
}
}
