Force close all the apps one by one. That's it, you will know it.


How to close an app

  • From the Home Screen, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle of the screen.
  • Swipe right or left to find the app that you want to close.
  • Swipe up on the app's preview to close the app.
