 Unless the OS grants extended execution to your app, when your app is suspended it has 5 seconds to release all its resources and save its data. For the best reliability and user experience, always assume the time you have to handle suspension tasks is limited. Keep in mind the following guidelines during the 5 second time period for handling suspension tasks:

 ## Usage  
 Many apps need to list the properties of a group of files, but don't always need to interact with the files directly. For example, a music app plays (opens) one file at a time, but it needs the properties of all of the files in a folder so the app can show the song queue, or so the user can choose a valid file to play.
