List of apps running in the background objective-c

Hi,

Is there a class in Objective-C that I can use in my app to get a list of the apps that are currently running in the background?

Thanks,
Kev.

No. Among other things that could easily be a breach of privacy. For example, you might find out which bank(s) the user had bank accounts with, or whether they use dating apps - as a user, do you want apps to have that information? I wouldn’t.

If such a thing did exist, what would you use it for?
