App working in background

 

Hello,
If someone clarify me one thing, I will be grateful.
Suppose that some big player from mobile market want to develop app for
Ubuntu phones. In example Spotify - they want to develop app that will be
able to work in background and with screen turned off (on Android I've used
it in that way almost all the time (when running with Endomondo)).
Another thing - sport trackers - they also want to work with screen turned
off. Third one - some file cloud services like Insync, Box, etc.
For now it's impossible, right? Are there any plans to allow working apps
in that way? How we can attract some big players on market when that basic
feature is unavailable?

Best regards,
Krzysztof Tataradziński
