Quickly swiping up to clear running apps... Not working well

Works for me. Ipad mini here, yours?

I can quickly swipe and they do close. Thouh im missing a close all feature...

 

I haven't noticed that but I always do two at a time.

 

I agree that this is not as smooth as it should be. Apps that are "moving" from left to right have to come to a complete stop to push them up.
I hope for small optimizations in 7.0.x...

 

Do these APPS that were opened, CLOSE (END)?

Hello:

I am new to the iPad and iOS device scene, and I was wondering, when we swipe these APPS up, do they really "CLOSE - END"?

As I have swiped them up, but I was thinking that they are "really still really actively, opened, and being stored in memory"?

Is this the equivalent, (as best that it can be compared to), say closing (ending) a program on Mac OS X - "X" = End the program?

Thanks for all comments and help..

Appreciate your time and efforts to to help..

Have a nice day/evening,

They do close fully and the memory is released. It's the cmd+q on the Mac. Most of the time you press the x but the app is still running, it's not like that in iOS. I believe it uses kill -9

 

Thank-You for that information..

 

Its not a struggle to me but i do experience the tabs moving left/right instead of up when I do the gesture quickly.

 

Sounds like it might be more related to gestures that are not exactly vertical upward swipes but are more diagonal perhaps where the OS might interpret them more as horizontal side swiping at times.
