I don't care if it's significantly slower or wastes resources: I'll probably keep your app open for like 3 minutes while I do the thing I want it to do. The only apps that stay open for a while are browsers and games. Everything else should be a web page.
It feels like walking on banana peels. I am always accidentally activating somewhere with errant swipes. In fact, I just did it while typing up this comment.
