Task Manager
Sometimes your phone might seem to slow down over time, and
the biggest reason for this are background applications. These
are applications that were not properly closed or shutdown
and are still active but minimized. The Task Manager not only
lets you see which of these applications are still active in the
background but also easily lets you choose which applications
are left running and which are closed.
