One of the touted features of iOS 7 has been the upgrade multitasking in iOS 7. Using the new APIs added in iOS 7 it’s now possible to update apps that are running in the background.
Here’s a nice series of tutorials providing a nice overview and step-by-step examples of how to use the new multitasking APIs in iOS 7 – remote notifications, background fetch, and the background transfer service.
Here are the three tutorials in the series:
– An Overview Of The New Multitasking Enhancements
– Working With Background Fetch

If you haven’t seen it yet, there is a nice overview of these enhancements in WWDC 2013 Session 204 (Apple Developer login required for download)
A nice starting point for those looking to utilize the new multitasking interface in iOS 7.
