iPhone / iPad: Quit apps completely under iOS 9
- Unlock your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and press the home button twice quickly.
- Now you can see an overview of all the apps that were recently opened. You can view these by swiping left and right.
- Hold your finger on one of the windows and swipe it upwards. This closes the app.
- A function to close all apps at once is unfortunately not available under iOS 9 either.
- Note: If the iOS device hangs and the app cannot be closed, press and hold the power and home button until the device restarts.
