CA works fine on its own, and always used to run in the background when running TomTom for navigation - but it does not now. Is there some kind of compatibility issue here?

Settings
Background App Refresh

Is this On?

Is CamerAlert On too?

This must be enabled and on for CamerAlert to allow it to work in the background with ANY app.

I have an iPhone 4S running iOS 7.1.1 - and, I do have background app refresh OFF. Does CA not run in the background anyway?

Background App Refresh is the least descriptive title that the fruit boys could have come up with. It's nothing to do with 'refreshing' the app. If it's turned off then the app does not have permission to run in the background - just make sure it's turned on for CamerAlert.
