Do downloads resume in background and lock screen ?

Mickey330 said:Yes. Everything I read says that the iPad continues to download after it has gone to or been put to sleep. The duration of that is what I can't fully verify - most articles I read says that it will not fully sleep (i.e. turn off WiFi) for 10 minutes. This should give plenty of time for a download to finish.
it's one of the things Apple "gives" developers so that they can program their app's shut-down sequence when the iPad is put into sleep mode.
Hope this clarifies.
