remove background (easyway to close apps running on background)

[skillz1318]

This is great!

Thanks...I don't need the SBSettings Toggle either...just set activator to double click on status bar and it quickly removes backgrounded apps.

I also like how I could set exceptions in the application itself to ignore, mail, phone, SMS, etc...

Great app. Faster than going through SBSettings and closing apps one by one. I set it to "hold home button". Seems like the most obvious place to set it. Voice Control is still on the same button but I don't use it.

Since Remove Recents did not work for me (it was not removing anything from the task switcher) I've been using Remove Background SBsettings toggle and it's a god sent.

Something, maybe Skype running in the bacground has a memory leak so if I start with 120mb in the morning I will end up with 20mb free in the evening, then i just Remove Bacground and all is good again.

Love this tweak. I like that you can add exceptions to the list.

MultiFlow and Backgrounder work for me...

MultiFlow for app switching and Backgrounder can be configured to close apps automatically... it also has overrides for the built in Apple apps.

i would love to use multifl0w but it keeps crashing and putting my phone in to safemode

Thanks! I did download Remove Background and it's probably all I need along with Remove Recents but I will give SPlus a test drive.

Update: After playing with all three installed, I think this will be a definite improvement over Apple's task switcher (as much as I like it). I like adding favs to the switcher. Haven't quite figured out what I want to do with the iPod controls yet. Oh, and I can't get the "torch" to work on the triple click.
