Are AIR games getting penalized by Google Play?

Thank you for your comment.

That is good to know that not all AIR games are getting penalized. I really like Flash (Animate CC). I really need to bring my ANR and Crash rates down.

I use StageText fields on some of my games but not on all. I also do not use packages, I run everything from the timeline. I am thinking that might be causing the errors.

I use NativeApplication to stop the game whenever it is out of focus. But I notice the game still keeps running on the background at a lower framerate.

NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.DEACTIVATE, Deactivate false, 0, true);

function Deactivate(event: Event): void {

    System.pause();

}

NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener(Event.ACTIVATE, Activate, false, 0, true);

function Activate(event: Event): void {

    System.resume();

}

I also use a preLoader.

I have no idea what is causing the crashes, it is really frustrating. Any help/info is greatly appreciated.
