Thanks for quick reply. Where can I find some examples or description?

What do you mean by:
"You will be able to launch it again only until the user has launch the app."

This service shouldn't have UI nor home screen icon. So as I understand only 
possibility to re-launch it is phone reboot.

Hi,
I've questions about Background services API mentioned here:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/#Planned_for_the_future

1) What's the status of this API?

Implemented in Gaia, useable to certified app with backgroundservice 
permission. However, no Gaia core apps is currently using it.

2) Is it possible to use it currently to create service:
        a. which starts automatically at boot time and runs in background.

Yes

        b. has no UI and it's not visible in task manager and/or on home screen.

Yes

        c. won't be killed in low memory conditions ( too much apps opened).

It will be killed. You will be able to launch it again only until the user has 
launch the app.
