  • Some models take a long time to train. On the server, you can let your neural networks train for weeks; but on a mobile device, even minutes are too long. iOS applications can run and process some data in background mode if they have some good reasons, like playing music. Unfortunately, ML is not on the list of good reasons, so most probably, you will not be able to run it in background mode.
