In iOS7, there is a new mode for periodic data fetch. Add the fetch background mode to your app, and in your application delegate, pass an interval to - [UIApplication setMinimumBackgroundFetchInterval:. Your app's delegate will start receiving calls to application:performFetchWithCompletionHandler: once the app is in the background.
