Since iOS 13 (and 13.1, et al), I have noticed that my background app refresh isn't working. I only allow a few apps to background refresh, such as Reeder 4 (RSS), and Apple News, but every time I open the apps, they have not refreshed. Both used to background refresh every half hour or so, but now they don't even refresh overnight! This has hit both my iPhone X and my iPad 6. I have tried switching background refresh off, then back on again, but it still doesn't work. Weirdly, I still get notices that Kevo and Weather (stock app) are checking my location in the background, but when I open Weather, for example, it only updates when I open it. I can be at work (60 miles from home) for hours, and when I open the app, it still shows the forecast for home for a few seconds before it updates to my work location.
All of these worked normally in iOS 12.
Anyone else seeing this? Any suggestions?
