7. Opening and switching
applications
Multitasking is easy with Android because
you can keep more than one application
running at the same time. There’s no
need to quit an application before opening
another. Use and switch between several
open applications. Android manages each
application, stopping and starting them as
needed to ensure that idle applications don’t
consume resources unnecessarily.
Stopping applications
In the Home screen, touch the
Applications
tab, then select
Settings
>
Applications
>
Manage applications >
select
Running
.
Scroll to the desired application and touch
Stop
to stop it.
TIP!
To return to recent applications,
touch and hold the Home key. The
screen then displays a list of the
applications you used recently.
