among iPhone users There is a myth that assumes closing open apps in task manager will optimize battery usagewill improve performance or allow the device to charge faster.
(
However, experts made it clear: this myth is falseAnd Closing apps can cause harm For the device to work properly.
Lawrence Finch, part of the Apple Support community, explained in a public blog on Apple’s website: Apps that appear when multitasking interface is opened do not run in the background but are suspended.
After saying this, Finch explained, to the surprise of many: Instead of helping preserve battery life, this app makes it worsebecause it requires much more energy for the iPhone to open a completely closed application than to open a suspended application.

The belief that closing applications makes the phone run faster has the opposite effect: On the contrary, it takes longer for the smartphone to open an application from scratch.
Also, it does not take up space in RAM memory.As we mentioned before, the programs have been suspended. For example, if you have 100 apps open in your multitasking interface, only the last three or four are using RAM. The rest, to put it simply, is just a shortcut to open faster.
In conclusion, The only time users should close an app is when it is not runningor it has a malfunction that requires a forced shutdown.
According to ‘Reader’s Digest’ magazine, Closing browser tabs on iPhone won’t make sites load faster or make your phone work better., because other windows are also suspended. This is achieved by clearing ‘cookies’ and cache in browsers.

But all is not in vain, because according to a study by researchers Rongjun Ma, Henrik Lassila, Leysan Nurgalieva, and Janne Lindqvist, closing multiple browser tabs (but not mobile phone apps) has an unexpected benefit: alleviating the stress that can cause seeing dozens of tabs. open tabs.
