Is there a way to receive an AsyncStream Object while in the background and or asleep?

Thank you

Yes. Use a foreground service with a partial lock (PhoneWakeState).

Thank you Erel. For some reason the Partial-Lock doesn't seem to work when I also set the app to Foreground. Is this normal?

No. There is no relation between the two.
