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 is background applications. These are
applications that have not been 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: Note: The greater the number of applications running on your phone, the

greater the energy drain on your battery.
