Misconceptions About iOS Multitasking

Let me be as clear as I can be: the iOS multitasking bar does not contain “a list of all running apps”. It contains “a list of recently used apps”. The user never has to manage background tasks on iOS.

I think most iOS users are unaware of this. So, don’t waste your time killing apps in your multitasking bar, except for when they are frozen or have crashed.

Benachrichtigungen in iOS mit Swipe verbergen

Das war mir neu: mit einem Swipe von Rechts nach Links über eine im Header erscheinende Benachrichtigung kann man diese verbergen. Alternativ kann man auch kurz die Benachrichtigungsleiste herunterziehen und wieder loslassen.

Recalibrating the iPhone home button

I’m sure most of you experienced an unreliable or only sometimes functioning home button on your iPhone. It seems that you can recalibrate it:

  1. Open any application
  2. Hold the power button until the slide to shutdown appears
  3. Release the power button
  4. Hold your home button lightly until the app icons reappear

This has worked for many users.
