Task Manager
Your phone can run applications simultaneously, with some
applications running in the background.
Sometimes your device might seem to slow down over time, and
the biggest reason for this are background applications. These are
applications that were not properly closed or shutdown and are still
active but minimized. The Task Manager not only lets you see
which of these applications are still active in the background but
also easily lets you choose which applications are left running and
which are closed.
Note:
The larger the number of applications running on your phone, the larger
the energy drain on your battery.
