How to exit app and return to home screen in iOS 8 using Swift programming

Question

I\'m trying to programmatically return to the home screen in an iOS8 App using Swift. I want to continue the application running in the background though. Any ideas on how

There is no way to "programmatically return to the home screen" except for crashing, exiting your program or calling unofficial API. Neither is welcome by Apple. Plus the Human Interface Guidelines are also covering this.
