Update latency / propagation time for Apple-hosted Background Assets

Hello,

We're evaluating Apple-hosted Background Assets for an app distributed on the public App Store.

Is there any documentation or guidance on update latency, specifically:

  • How quickly are asset updates propagated to devices once a new version is published? More specifically, is propagation near-immediate, or should we expect a delay (minutes/hours/days) before devices know they have to pick up the new version in the ideal condition of being connected to Wi-Fi, locked, charging and the app has been recently used?
  • Are there any other factors other than the aforementioned ones that affect how fast an update reaches a device?

Any official documentation, WWDC session, or guidance from the team would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
