    Hey guys, I found a tweak called 'Watchdog', which enables backgrounding on iOS 8.x!

     

    Watchdog is currently in Alpha stage but after testing it, it works quite well, although it lacks some features, it is still early days and the dev has plans on adding additional features and fixing any bugs.

    To activate backgrounding, tap on the icon for the app you want to background while in the app switcher, you will notice a small red + symbol appear next to the apps icon, indicating that the app has been backgrounded.

    The + symbol will also be present next to the backgrounded apps icon on the springboard!

    If an app is backgrounded, it will auto launch after a restart/respring if the app wasn't deselected in the app switcher first

    it does work, here is instructions: http://www.idownloadblog.com/2015/07/14/watchdog-app-backgrounder-ios-8-tweak/

     

    it was a bit confusing at first but when you open the Switcher and you see ur apps Tap on the icon under the opened APP Within the switcher and then a colour dot will appear on it and within ur Springboard or folder where ever ur app is the dot will also show there.. just be sure to tap again when ur not using the app coz it will kill ur battery fast..

     

    Note: even if you quit the app from app switcher the app will still run as long it has that red dot on the icon of the app. so if you have closed out of many apps without untapping the backgrounder function your battery will die pretty quick.
