What do you call that double-click on the home button that reveals the apps that are running?
In iOS 6, it was useful. A quick double-click and running apps were displayed along the bottom of the screen and you could still see the screen you were looking at. I guess some people couldn't remember what a screen in Safari looked like or the shape of the mail screen so they changed it. Now you get the open page in each running app and it's a chore to swipe until you find the one you want.
Sure it's easier to quit a running app, all you have to do is flick the page and the app quits.
And there is another flaw. Some apps appear to be open on a page, but, for example when I've been working on a drawing in Procreate, the drawing I'm working on, appears. If I tap on the app in the multi-switch, the app closes and then opens to the gallery view of the app. If I ignore the multi-switch and instead tap the app icon on the home screen, it opens right where I left off.
I'm sure this unhelpful behavior is a combination of apple changing how they treat open apps and the app developer not keeping up with apples changing Eco-system. It's annoying. The same odd behavior occurs in other apps.
So I followed the behavior of a computer illiterate friend who never got the hang of the multi-switch and always clicks once to return to the home screen and then taps on the app she wants - it doesn't matter if the app was already running.
I put my most used apps on the home screen. Now I click once, tap on the icon and get on with what I want to do.
I'm sure you all figured this out long ago, but it was an ah-hah moment for me.
