How to close iOS7 apps?

Prior to iOS7 you simply double clicked the home button to show open Apps and you could then close them all down.  That doesn't seem to happen with iOS7.  Any idea how to close open Apps?
... The learning curve beings

Thanks ...
That's what I was trying, but I guess I was doing so to quickly.  Once I slowed down they finally moved.  Now ... if the former Apps wouldn't crash I'd be all set, ROFL.  Going to be a learning curve for the developers as well I think.
So much to learn

  • After the update I don't know how to close running apps? I recall double clicking the main button then hold one app until they begin a jiggling motion. But that no longer works.

    How do close running apps?

    You still double tap the home button and the apps are lined up across the screen. Swipe up on the app preview thumbnail - drag it up off of the screen - and that will close the app.

    CLOSING APPS
    Double tap the home button then on the multitasking ribbon at the bottom of the screen hold one of the app icons until a minus sign appears and then tap the minus sign for all the apps you want to close.  When done tap home button once. There are some misconceptions that open apps consume battery power. This is generally incorrect. Read: http://speirs.org/blog/2012/1/2/misconceptions-about-ios-multitasking.html
    For iOS 7 double tap home button and then swipe up on the previews of the apps you want to close and then tap the preview of the home or the home button once when finished closing apps.

  • Do I have to run Apps in b/round? - How to "Close an App" quickly?

    1. Is there any way to "toggle off" background Apps? I have no need to keep newspapers, books, games, etc running in the back only to have to "Double tap the home button, hold the icon till it wiggles, tap the negative sign, close the bottom panel" - useless wate of time.
    2. If no, any shorter way to close an app other than the method described above?
    How about just flick up on the Home screen to get to the running apps bar (what do you call that bar anyway?) instead of having to click the home button twice?
    (You wouldn't believe how much noise that stupid button makes when it clicks when your partner is sleeping and you are reading in bed!)
    3. At the very least can't Apple just make the background Apps already have the little negative sign on them when they come up (like the close program "x" PC programs now have)? It would at least save the "hold till it wiggles step".
    4. Don't even get me started on the Mute button that only mutes system sounds (which I have turned off anyway) yet makes be do a whole bunch of steps to be able to screen lock! Can you say "user selectable function"?

    And unnecessary. Maybe once/week you would want to enter the multitasking tray just in case you have a thousand or so apps in the background.

    Again, there's no reason to close an app.

    I have to repeat that there's no reason to close an app.

    I don't have the time to give all the reasons why that would be undesirable.

    Don't get me started regarding an issue where Apple did exactly what I had hoped they would do.
