How to wake up ios from my app?

Question

In my game, the sprites blink when iOS goes into idle. To fix this issue, I set idle timer disabled, but the app can still get idle in some scenarios, for instance, the app get sleep and then switch back by users.

Is there any way I can wake up ios proactively with some API?

With private APIs, maybe. With ones you are able to use, definitely not. Apple does not want to let any app randomly turn on/wake up/unlock because that would be a security and a battery issue. How would you feel if an app stopped you from turning off your phone? — erdekhayser, Mar 04 '14 at 17:47

There is no way of doing it other than:

[UIApplication sharedApplication].idleTimerDisabled = YES;

Only the user can control when your app is sent to background / foreground / sleep.
