opening multiple apps is closing suspended games

This issue is more a feedback issue, I don't require any personal assistance in remedying the situation, just please forward this to the appropriate software engineers so that they may attempt to remedy it.

So, say I'm playing some game, it's such a great feature to have game suspension, and be able to take a quick break and open up Netflix and watch a show, and when I'm done come back and pick up right where I left off. However, if say I open Netflix, and
I back out to the dashboard and open up Hulu, most likely my suspended game will be quit automatically, and I'll be required to boot back up from scratch.

I come across many people on other forums frustrated by this. I myself became conscious of this quite a while ago, and now make sure to properly close one app before opening another as to avoid this complication. All I have to do is check my recent games/apps
on the dashboard home, hit the START / SYSTEM MENU button, select the QUIT option if open. However, other people might not have figured this out quite yet and might not ever, and it would go a long way to remedy the situation by prioritizing the applications
to keep suspended games open by automatically quitting any other non-gaming apps instead when opening up another non-gaming app.

I've also while managing / browsing my pins and game library, I've accidentally selected other games by accident while another game was suspended, launching the other game by mistake and automatically quitting the other I wanted to leave suspended. What
I feel needs to happen when launching any new game while another is suspended is that there needs to be some kind of prompt that there's currently a suspended game and a "would you like to proceed" with a YES/NO option.

And sure, maybe for many they might not feel this is an issue that needs any addressing, so it maybe stuff like this can be added to System Settings options so that people can decide for themselves whether they'd like the option to prevent multiple app usage
from closing suspended games.

So far so good! I've been using Instant On successfully, opening lots of apps and games and not closing them, haven't needed to do a Power Cycle at all.

Hey there,

To clarify a bit, some apps don't support the suspend and resume feature and only one game or app can be held in suspend mode at any given time. For example if you open Netflix and then open another app such as the NFL app or YouTube. The Netflix app will
close fully and the same principal applies to games. So this isn't really a bug but a feature request. You can voice your feedback to the teams through our feedback website
