2015-07-13 14:32:29 James Lewis description A fairly common experience:- I start listening to a podcast on the phone, and then browse Google Plus... but after a few minutes the phone kills Podbird (to recover resources?), this is irritating, since I was using that background app... and I I then switch back to the application screen to re-load podbird and restart playback, then switch back to Google+, but it has killed the Google+ app and I have lost my place. A similar thing happens if one is browsing Google Plus, sees an article that's interesting, click on the article to read it before replying, then switch back to Google Plus to respond... but Google Plus has already been closed... There needs to be some way for apps to remain running in the background while in use without being killed....
