Multitasking

iPhone helps you manage several tasks at the same time.
View contacts and open apps. Double-click the Home button to reveal the multitasking

screen. Swipe left or right to see more. To switch to another app, tap it. To connect with a

of communication.

Close an app. If an app isn’t working properly, you can force it to quit. Drag the app up from the

multitasking display. Then try opening the app again.

If you have lots of apps, you can use Spotlight to find and open them. Drag down the center of

the Home screen to see the search field. See
