I keep getting the "to many background tasks running". How many thouse are I don't know and since long stop'ed looking. Isn't it max 8 or something that can run?

I have 15 apps active running in the background and at least another 12 that I want active but can't due to the "Too (not to) many background tasks running" message.
Live tiles are one of Windows Phone's premier features. I wish we cold have more apps active and that each would update even more often, cycling through and offering fresh information to glance at.

I got the full limit of 15 apps running in the background ! And I'm complaining about that limit because I want to add couple more. Battery life is fine for me. With 8 hrs at work, I would still be left with 60 to 70% depending on usage on that day

What i always did after coming from fresh format, i installed first the lumia storage checker and sequentially choose what app is important then i check the storage space it occupies and the background task so i will know if the application i installed consumes a lot of power.

My thoughts exactly! Seeing all those tiles flipping and updating is what made me love WP in the first place
