    I know iOS supports playing music and recording while an app is in the background using UIBackgroundModes, but has anyone gotten this to work with a Unity app? Possible?

    Thanks!

    Using what was mentioned in the other thread and subclassing UIApplication as shown here:
    https://github.com/MosheBerman/ios-audio-remote-control

    I was finally able to get background audio and respond to the Play/Pause events in iOS6/7. Sounds like this is completely different process for Android, so I will put that off for now.
