Today's tip is something my kids showed me the other day.
Your iPhone and other i Devices often leave apps open - even after you "close" the apps. By close, I mean you are no longer using the app. By leave open, I mean the app is still running, you do not see the app running.
Why close an app? When an app is open, though not visible, it is still using resources on the device. It may be communicating with the Internet or other apps and devices, using up battery and possibly other resoruces.
To see what apps are open and running, hit the Home button twice. On the bottom, you will now see a list of apps currently open.
To close the apps, hold down an icon on the bottom row until you see a "-" appear. When you see the "-" appear, touch the "-" icon and the app will close. This will appear as though you are deleting the app from the device, but it will only be closing the app.
