    It's an often misunderstood topic.  The programs that are "running" (and where they are actually using data and battery) can be found in "Notifications" and "Background App Refresh."

  • How do you close apps running in the background in iOS 7?

    Do you know how to close apps in iOS 7?  In iOS 6 you held your finger on them and when the minus sign came up you closed them that way.  This saved the battery.  Now there is no way to close the apps once you close them and it runs the battery down rapidly. 

    To close out apps, simply double click the home button and instead of holding down the app icons and clicking on the X mark in older versions, you have to swipe the app window up and away.
    Also you can save on battery by turning of background app refresh from settings, as explained in this article .... http://nyacomputing.com/how-to-close-apps-in-ios-7-and-save-on-battery/

  • How do I close apps on my iPhone with iOS 7?

    I cannot clear my app cache history in my iPhone 5c. It's not the same as my 4 which meant double clicking the home button and then holding down the icon until it shakes. This iPhone 5c does not do that! I received no user manual with this phone! Can anyone help??  Is this an impossible task with the 5c?

    To quit running apps in iOS 7 takes one less step that in the old days of iOS 6. Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app.

    Obviously you didn't search the forum prior to your post as there have been a lot of posters with the same question. Double tap on the home button as usual. Scroll left or right to select the app that you want to close and swipe upward to close it. The iPhone ios7 user guide is available online from Apple support and from the ibook store on your phone.

  • How do I close apps in iOS 7.1.1 on my iPad?

    How do I close apps in my ipad with iOS 7.1.1?
    I have tried pressing the home button twice to get the strip of small icons along the bottom and then swiping open apps upwards, but nothing happens. I have also tried the old way of holding down the thumbnail ( it used to jiggle with a minus sign) but nothing happens that way either!

    You're nearly there:  Home button twice to get the list of recently used apps (they're not running) and swipe the large thumbnail above upwards to remove the app.   (99% of the time this activity is unnecessary.)

    Hello Skittles1202
    It sounds like more of the storage of your iPad is full. Plug it into your computer and check in iTunes or on your iPad go to Settings > General > Usage and it will sort out in order of what is taking up the most space. Once you figure that out you can either delete what is not needed or import any photos that you may have to your computer. If you want to close out any application that you may have open previously, then double tap the home button and then swipe up on any app that you want to close
