In most cases, you repeatedly press the back button on the screen and think you have quit a certain application when it disappears. In fact, all you've done is leave it running in the background. Closing apps is one of the easiest tasks you can do on your own androiddevices do, and solves a number of problems. First, this procedure restores apps to their normal state when they become unresponsive, and second, it prevents apps from draining the battery and using RAM.
Although the device with Androidem automatically optimizes battery and memory performance, open apps can slow down your device, especially if you have installed resource-hungry ones. If you have so far "closed" applications with the Back navigation button, we will tell you in this guide how to close them for real.
What happens when you close androidapplication
Closing the application v Androidu means turning it off, more precisely terminating all its processes in the foreground. These processes are the application activities that you can see. Examples of foreground processes might be updates to media players or the Google Play store that appear in the notification bar.
You can close an application when it is not behaving as expected, is consuming memory, or when you are not using it. Most androidMost phones have an App Overview menu where you can see every open app. Closing an application only terminates foreground processes, and some "stubborn" applications may remain actively running in the background. Background apps work invisibly to perform various activities whether you open them or not. These activities include, but are not limited to, searching for updates, downloading and updating user content, displaying advertisements or sending notifications.
Closing an app in the background can free up memory, but it can also prevent it from working properly. You may not receive notifications or the app may crash frequently. Services such as Bluetooth and the One UI launcher are examples of system applications running in the background. If you don't want to damage your phone, we recommend not closing these apps.
