New way to run apps background

Suggestions for Tasks

We did manage to integrate tasks/services into Makeroid a while ago, but stopped working on it because there were many bugs and we’ve had other priorities. The App Inventor team are currently busy working on the iOS version so no progress has been made on services for almost a year. Unfortunately, I can’t say when we will have support for tasks, but we probably will once App Inventor release it.
