How windows 10 phone handles notifications and multitasking ?

[Sam_93]

In windows 8.1 multitasking is pretty lame . Apps suspended hampers usability and may not be practical in every case. Notifications don't come in time . Few days back I saw an error in whatsapp Microsoft notifications error . This is pretty irritating. Are these niggling issues still there in win 10 for phones ?

Current W10 builds are still to "buggy" to notice these kind of improvements.

Having only one foreground app at any time you don't need a true multitasking, it only eats up a battery. Especially if that background processing would be polling of the resources periodically. Having good (push) notifications should be enough for most cases.
