Why iPhones Don't Have A 'Close All Apps' Button

Ғылым және технология

Many iPhone users have grown accustom to closing all their background apps. Which can become tedious, since it has to be done manually. This has left people wondering why Apple doesn’t add a “close all apps” button. Similar to what you’d find on many Android devices. Well, it’s because Apple's iOS takes a different approach to app management than Android.

If I leave a recourse intensive game on my iPad for just one second to do something in a different App, the game gets closed and needs to reload. While my 5-year-old Android leaves it open, even if I'm opening 2 or 3 Apps in the meantime.

    The one downside to this automatic management is that sometimes apps I want to continue running in the background get closed after performing certain actions.

I wish they would give us the option to pin an app in RAM like many Android OSs can to make it exempt from this automatic memory management.

    Yeah. I think most people close background apps the same way they close browser tabs on a computer. If they need to go back and use the app from where they left of, they keep it open. If they have no use for it, they close it, and are able to start back from the home page of the app when they need it again.

    Apple clearly doesn't know the average user's habits. We close the app because the next time we open it, we will be on the homepage of the app and the content will be updated. Especially on iOS, it is often very difficult to close the window and return to the App's home page. Sometimes the window is closed in the upper right corner or upper left corner or slid down. It is often frustrating to return to the app's home page without the back button. So I make sure to close all apps from the background.

    Lol Android optimizes background apps as well, so whether they're "open" or "closed" doesn't really matter for the battery. I'll tell you more: even if you manually close an app from the multitasking menu, it may still run in the background, because of optimization and the fact that Android thinks it may still be used in near future. You can even try to reproduce it yourself - just open an app, kill it and immediately (for the highest probability it's still cached) open it again. I don't know if every Android phone does this, but the higher-end ones should. Mine is Huawei P20 and most often does this with Google Maps & KZread. And now why a close all button is useful (even though it doesn't necessarily kill all apps)? It helps users manage multitasking. When I e.g. finish work session with my phone and start to use it for private / leisure purposes, I want to quickly mentally disconnect from my work, so I just close all open apps. And there are numerous examples like this, the general pattern is I finish one kind of multi-app activity and start another. Also closing all apps just feels nice, especially for perfectionist people.

    I’ve experienced some apps on iOS that refresh in the background even when I don’t grant them that permission. The way that I’ve found to manage this is to close the app as soon as I am done using it. A good example of this is the Level Lock app. If I don’t close it myself it will drain my battery quick despite not having my explicit permission to refresh in the background. I close the app myself and - voila, no battery drain.

    On Android you can 'lock' needed apps so that Close all doesn't close the locked ones. RAM management is manufacturer specific, some phones do it very well, some unload every app after a short while even if RAM is still not full.

    this really doesnt matter whether it is more optimized or not, people want a close app button, because many are going to want to "close all" apps. hence, a close all apps button should be given. do what is wanted, maybe not what is best. simple. and for instance, "while it may be satisfying to swipe up and close all your apps, it is not something you should do if you care about maximizing battery life" that is not the point, people will do it anyway, so make it a more efficient process, or integrate it into the software to make it more software efficient too.

    As a device repair technician, yes, iOS does include a feature that limits RAM when unused, or when multiple tabs are open, however. If leaving all apps open, will still drain the battery. So I recommend leaving “essential” apps open. Like messages, notes, camera roll, etc. so it runs more smoothly, and primary apps made by Apple are more battery efficient compared to third party apps. So if you’re obsessed with Angry birds or TikTok, yeah. Swipe out of them. But keep your essentials. The iOS will learn your usage patterns and adjust. This is my opinion….but definitely have seen significant improvement when comparing app usage vs. battery drainage.

    I rarely close apps unless I know it’s one I will not be using again for a little while or it’s an app like Google Maps and it’s buried somewhere in my mind that if google maps is open somewhere, it must be draining the hell out of resources & battery Likely not the case but that vibe remains. I have noticed Facebook & Facebook messenger by far consume the most battery life on iOS (for myself, can’t speak for you) and I notice they each have the most background use that consumes the battery far more than any other app on my phone. It’s super annoying and don’t know how to resolve it-and I know it’s probably an easy solution.

    Would be much more intuitive and predictible, if apps would stay opened forever in background if returned to the home screen via swipe from up from bottom and gets closed, if swiped from right or left corner (back gesture) - i.e. like on PCs. This for Android too btw. Because sometimes you need some apps to run in background - like if you downloading something big, and some not - because you finished using them. Because its confusing - why do i see an app in recents, if it is actually not runnning? I think, how iOS and Android both are doing it at current time is confusing.

    The problem is that keeping apps open makes multitasking terrible. I don’t want to have to search for the app I used. Also I absolutely love the ‘swipe over the bottom of your phone to switch apps’ they introduced ever since the homebutton disappeared. This becomes very messy however if you have lots of apps open. They could easily fix this issue by making it so that swiping them up doesn’t just close them but does remove them from the up swipe menu. Instead, if you wanted to close an app you’d have to press it for 2 or 3 seconds. This 2-3 seconds waiting time will also make it less likely for people to unnecessarily close their apps which would - as stated in this video - ‘ruin battery and RAM regulations’

    I think your information about Android apps is outdated. I'm pretty sure Android manages app memory and battery use too, and I don't see a "Close All Apps" button on my Pixel. Honestly, having used vanilla Android and IOS they're not all that different. Android phones just has a bit more customization options and more varieties (i.e. Samsung's version of Android might work a little differently than Google's version of Android) and offers more hardware options when choosing phones. Actually Vanilla Android reminds me a lot of how iPhones did things, it's mainly the OEM's versions of Android that behave more uniquely. And I haven't had a non Google phone for so long I don't even know if that's true anymore.
