[Feature request] Live multitasking
As i have seen in couple of videos, when one exits apps by sliding to right, app minimizes to a live tile on home screen ..ie.if you are playing a video( as in link) as soon as app is minimized , the video keeps on playing & we can see a live tile on home screen..
however in intex aqua fish/jolla c on minimizing the tile freezes ! i have tried this for both sailfish & android apps & none of them are supporting live tiles..

it would be a great feature if on minimizing app its still active as a live tile on homescreen
edit 1- i got to know this feature exist in early versions of sfos so ill add this in feature request
edit 2- i noticed that if you start any app & swipe to left/right while it is opening as a tile on homescreen , the live tile feature works ..but as soon as you open some other app the tile freezes !
edit 3- for few apps like native browser, ytplayer & few sailfish apps are capable of live multitasking..ie while watching video on native browser , on minimizing the app ,video keeps playing on live tile ..
so if this feature is extended to android apps , then it would be great !
this feature was exists only in very early Sailfish OS versions.

but since its not so i have to switch between apps making job tedious !.
or lets take another example .. im in conversation with 2 people - one on whatsapp & other on fb messenger , if i have live multitasking , i can keep track of both converdations rather than switching btw apps more frequently !
i hope you get the point @coderus
