This can be rather limiting for those wanting to run an app not on the predefined list of apps in Ultra Power Saving Mode, but for those with a rooted Galaxy S5, a new app called Ultra Power Saving Mode (UPSM) Manager aims to get rid of that limitation. While it can't increase the number of apps that can be active, it allows you to add any app of your choosing to the list of supported apps when the power saving mode is enabled, as long as the app is read by the Ultra Power Saving Mode framework (which shouldn't be an issue for most apps.)
UPSM Manager is a free app that can be downloaded and installed manually from the XDA forums, though there's also a Play Store version that you can buy to support the developer. Oh, and if you don't have root access on your Galaxy S5, you can remedy that easily by trying out the towelroot app that was released a few days ago.
