I have couple method that depend on the network status indicator being hidden or not based on my App. I was wondering if it is possible something outside of your App control is able to turn it off or on. Any clarification will be appreciated. I downloaded an App in background and received an email in the background the indicator didn't show.

If you're referring to the networkActivityIndicatorVisible property of UIApplication, I don't believe any outside application will manipulate that property, since it is specific to the running application.

I assume you're asking because of this question, and I would recommend, like others have, not to use this to determine whether a network call has completed or not. I would put the code you want to execute at completion in a callback or delegate, depending on how the call is made. Attaching it to the networkActivityIndicatorVisible property can lead to problems if you have code in the future that shows and hides this, but you don't want this method to execute anymore.
