Running an iOS application in the background from another application

I do not know many iOS APIs and its internal components.

However, I want to run application A in the background (do not run application A in the foreground) from another application B and perform some tasks, such as loading content.

I would like to communicate between applications using URL schemes.

On Android, you can start the Android service in the background using implicit / explicit intentions (URL schemes). I am looking for similar APIs / components in iOS.

If not all application execution or any user logic. Can I just do an NSURLSession from URL schemes that are used as a job to migrate background content to iOS?

Regards, Saurav

No and yes

No, you cannot launch another application from your application in the background, but you can open it in the foreground

Yes

If you developed application A and B, you can trigger a push notification from application A to B. B, when received, it can execute your download code in the background
