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.
