Quick action

Question

As for the new 3D Touch features with the new iPhone 6s / 6s +, I'm trying to add some quick action to the home screen in my application.

I was able to realize a normal flow of power regarding the application icon on the main screen → select one of the available quick actions → take care of all possible application states correctly.

My question is: Is it possible to create a silent action among the available quick actions? By silentI mean, a certain action will happen, but the application will not complete the launch? Or, alternatively, launch, but will not be in the foreground?

UPDATE
I'll talk about what I'm trying to achieve. I want this one-sentence behavior to be HealthKitprovided with its original delivery - where, after a change in the HealthKit store, it wakes my application up and gives me a chance to do this in the background (with the HealthKit example, a request for new data in the repository).

After reading most of the Apple documentation on this topic, I got the feeling that with the current available API it is impossible, but I hope someone will surprise me ...

Nope. The user who invokes the Quick Action home screen always activates the application.

, , application:performActionForShortcutItem:completionHandler:. (.. /, ), , application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:, application:performActionForShortcutItem:completionHandler:. (, did/willFinishLaunching .)
