All operating systems, whether mobile phones, smart TVs or computers, perform automatic management of the operation and use of the device's memory. In this way, more memory is needed, the applications that we have opened for a long time are closing, keeping in the background, those that we have recently opened.
However, on some occasions, our smartphone needs us to let's give a push to run applications faster and / or with greater fluidity. In these cases is when we can be forced to close applications manually on our device, a much simpler process than it may seem at first.
The first thing we must be clear about is that the memory of the device has absolutely nothing to do with the amount of storage. In this way, if we delete applications from our device, we will not get more memory, just as if we close applications that are running, we will not get more storage space.

- If it is an older mobile, we have to click on it touch button that represents two squares, one superimposed on the other.
To close the application or applications, we just have to swipe the app up for the most modern models. If our smartphone is older, we will have to click on the X displayed next to the application name.
