How to close Safari windows on iPad iOS 15

When you tap the Safari browser, a row of mini opened windows saying “Start Screen” appear at the bottom of the screen below. Tapping the screen or “edit” will remove them. How do you permanently delete them so they do not keep reappearing? If you press and hold the Safari app, an option for “Show All Windows” will appear and makes all these opened windows larger squares that fill the screen. However, there is no option to delete them. Usually opened windows have an “X” so you can close them out but the ones saying “Start Screen” do not. The “Edit” option is only for customizing the Safari browser, and the other options on the top left and right of the screen will not delete them either. I noticed this problem with opened windows on my email and notes app. It is really annoying! It would be great to hear from Apple Support so this issue can be fixed in a future iOS update. There needs to be an easily accessible DELETE option to close out these mini opened windows!

Having updated to iPadOS15, you have now encountered the “Shelf” - this being a new feature of the now revised iPadOS multitasking environment. 

iPadOS permits you to have multiple “instances” of the same App - each instance being self contained. The  shelf , when triggered, shows a thumbnail of each running instance of an App. 

For example, if you have three running instances of Safari, each with its own set of open tabs, you will see three thumbnails corresponding to each running instance of Safari - plus a button to open a new instance of Safari. Simply tapping a thumbnail will switch directly to that running instance of Safari. Each App - such as Mail, Safari, Notes, Calendar, etc. - has its own corresponding  shelf .

Individual open instances of an App can be closed directly from the Shelf; just swipe the unwanted thumbnail off the top of the screen. Note, however, that Multitasking and associated Shelf functions cannot be disabled.

This article from Appleinsider has a useful explanation of this new feature along with many of the updates to multitasking:

The  iPad User Guide  is also a rich source of frequently overlooked information. The Guide is available both online using a web browser (such as Safari), or as an Apple Books download:

This answer is not helpful. But thank you.

I am embarrassed to say that I find myself avoiding my iPad because I find these nine or more windows at the bottom of the Safari page so incredibly annoying — even though they disappear after a certain point, only to return.

My solution was:

From Home Screen slide your fingers halfway up. This will make all your open Apps appear.

You may be shocked at all the open apps hiding in the background.

Slide each App up toward the end of the screen to close them.

I found this out because my iPad Air 4th was VERY slow and the advice was to close open Apps.

While I was at it I placed a Virtual Home Button Icon to use from the Accessibility Settings.

(The iPad Air doesn’t have a physical Home button.) Now I can function in peace.

Hi JLT1024,

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you have some questions about Safari settings on your iPad. We're happy to provide some information to assist.

When using the Split View feature in Safari, you can merge all pages and then close the tabs to prevent seeing the open views at the bottom of the page. The details near the bottom of the article here can help: Use split screen in Safari on your iPad

Once all open start page tabs are merged, close as normal. If needed, the guide page here has the steps for closing tabs. Use tabs in Safari on iPad

You can also change what your start page(s) open with the the steps here: Customize your Safari settings on iPad

Mar 25, 2022 12:30 PM in response to Sleevy

Exactly. I hadn’t read this before I posted

Mar 21, 2022 8:05 AM in response to JLT1024

When the icons appear at the bottom of the screen simply touch one and drag it up to the top and it will disappear.

Mar 25, 2022 12:29 PM in response to JLT1024

I figured it out. Go to show all windows where all the windows that were on the bottom of the screen take up the full screen and just swipe up manually and they will disappear individually.

Jan 30, 2022 10:00 PM in response to OrigamiFan1

This reply refers to tabs and split view. THe original question like mine, is deleting the small windows NOT tabs. They’re still there like in the photo above.

Jan 30, 2022 10:19 PM in response to JLT1024

I tried deleting history all and all those previous windows are still at the bottom. There are too many to count. ??????

Me too! They are so annoying! Please Support provide a solution!

How-To Geek

How to close all safari tabs at once on iphone and ipad.

Don't keep a million tabs open - that is what bookmarks are for.

Quick Links

How to close every tab by pressing the tab switcher button, how to close all safari tabs on the tab switcher screen, how to reopen recently closed tabs, key takeaways.

• Close all your Safari tabs at once by long-pressing the tab switcher button and selecting "Close All Tabs" in the pop-up menu. Confirm with another tap.
• Another way to close all tabs is by long-pressing the "Done" button on the tab switcher screen and selecting "Close All Tabs" in the pop-up menu. Confirm again.
• To reopen recently closed tabs, tap the tab switcher button, long-press the "+" button, and select the desired tab from the "Recently Closed Tabs" list. Stay out of Private Browsing mode. Good luck!

If you have dozens of tabs open in Safari on iPhone or iPad and need to clear them out quickly, it can be tedious to "X" them out one at a time. Luckily, there are two ways to close all your Safari tabs at once, and they also work in Private Browsing mode. Here's how.

First, open "Safari" on your iPhone or iPad. While on any page, locate the tab switcher button, which looks like two overlapping squares. On the iPad, you'll find it in the upper-right corner of the screen.

On the iPhone, it's in the lower-right corner of the screen.

Place your finger on the tab switcher button and hold it there for a moment, preforming a "long press." In the menu that pops up, select "Close All Tabs." (There will be a number in the choice that lists the number of open tabs.)

When Safari asks you to confirm with another pop-up, tap "Close All Tabs" again. After that, all of your browser tabs will close.

There's another way to quickly close all tabs in Safari on iPhone and iPad. First, open "Safari," then tap the tab switcher button once.

On the tab switcher screen, locate the "Done" button, which is located in the upper-right corner of the screen on the iPad and in the lower-right corner of the screen on the iPhone.

Long-press the "Done" button — place and hold your finger there for a moment until a pop-up appears. In the pop-up, select "Close All Tabs." The exact name of the pop-up action will vary, depending on the number of tabs you have open.

Safari will ask you to confirm closing all the tabs with another pop-up message. Select "Close All Tabs" again. Then all of your Safari tabs will close instantly. The same action works in Private Browsing mode. Pretty handy!

If you accidentally closed all of your tabs and would like to get them back, you can retrieve them one at a time as long as you aren't in Private Browsing mode . Just tap the tab switcher button, then long-press the "+" button until a "Recently Closed Tabs" list appears . From there you can tap on entries in the list to open them again in Safari. Good luck!

How to Close All of Your Safari Tabs at Once on iPhone or iPad

There are some iOS gestures and tricks that have been around forever, but remain relatively hidden because they're hard to find unless you know about them.

Closing all of the tabs in your Safari browser on an iOS device is one such trick -- it's simple if you know how to do it, but it's a gesture you might not know exists.

• Open up Safari.
• Long press on the "Tabs" icon denoted by two squares. On iPhones, it's at the bottom of the browser in portrait mode or at the top in landscape mode. On the iPad, it's at the top.
• Select Close All Tabs.

Alternatively, you can single tap on the Tabs icon to bring up the browser window view, and then long press on "Done" to bring up the same "Close All Tabs" interface.

That's all there is to it. Safari will let you know how many tabs are currently open, and it will close each and every one after the Close All Tabs option is tapped.

Because it's so easy to open a new tab when browsing without meaning to on an iOS device, the Close All Tabs option is super handy for getting rid of all those open browser windows in one quick go.

Are there really MacRumors readers that don’t know this?

Thanks for sharing the shortcut. It will be real helpful to me in the future. Especially when I am cleaning up my wife’s iPhone. She usually has 20 to 30 tabs open.

Why doesn’t this use force touch? iOS has more and more UX inconsistencies.

iOS 7: Closing All Open Safari Windows on Your iPhone or iPad

As you may know, “Private Browsing” is what Apple calls the feature that prevents the webpages you’re viewing from being stored in your history (or being suggested as future autofill options). It’s available within both Safari on the Mac and mobile Safari, so no matter which of your devices you’re on, you can be assured that no one will be able to go back and look at what sites you’ve been to. I’m sure some of you are shrugging right now, as if to say, “So what if people look at my browsing history?” Others of you are putting clauses in your wills specifying that your computers be set on fire upon your death. I won’t comment on which camp I fall into.

So to turn this feature on for the iPhone, first tap the “Show All Windows” button at the bottom-right of your screen.

On the iPhone, you’ll then see every window you’ve got open, organized in a card-deck-shuffley sort of way. (Don’t you love my highly technical language?) Just so you know, you can swipe any window from right to left to close it on that screen.

For all device types, if you want to turn on Private Browsing, you’ll tap the “Private” button. 

This tip isn’t just about toggling that on, however—oh my, no.  Instead, I want to highlight the fact that when you do touch that “Private” button, Safari will ask you if you’d like to close all existing windows (or iPad tabs) before you switch over to the new mode.

Select “Close All,” and it’ll do just that. You’ll see that Safari’s swapped to a dark grey interface, which indicates that you’re currently browsing privately. 

At that point, you can repeat the steps above to switch back to normal browsing if you want to. And y es, I blurred out the names of my bookmarks. No reason. I said, NO REASON. Move along.

Too many safari tabs open on your iphone close them all with this trick.

Admit it -- you have too many Safari tabs open right now. Well, iOS can automatically clear the clutter for you. Here's how.

Key Takeaways

• Set a time frame (one day, one week, or one month) for Safari to automatically close tabs that are older, preventing tab clutter.
• Organize Safari tabs on iPhone with Tab Groups. Create tab groups to categorize and easily find open web pages based on topics or interests.
• Close Safari tabs open on your Mac from your iPhone.

Safari on your iPhone tends to be a bit overzealous at opening new tabs, resulting in a web browser that's more crowded than a Taylor Swift concert. Thankfully, iOS and iPadOS make it possible to close all but one tab at once -- it's one of our favorite tricks for iPhone .

If robot vacuums can automatically clean your house, why shouldn't your phone automatically clean up tabs for you? The iPhone can automatically close tabs that are older than a week or a month, keeping your Safari tab count from creeping to embarrassing numbers. You only have to arrange your settings once, then Safari will do the cleanup for you, set it and forget it.

Best iPhone: Expert tested and reviewed

Safari has a few other hidden organization features, like tab groups and even the ability to close your MacBook's open tabs from your iPhone. We're sharing our favorite tricks for keeping your Safari tabs under control, starting with how to close all tabs on your iPhone or iPad.

How to close all tabs on iPhone or iPad Safari

If you're like us, and you end up with multiple Safari tabs open, closing them all down individually can take a very long time. We had 246 open at one point.

If you have tabs you want to keep open, you'll still need to close all of your tabs individually, pin them, or you can save a bookmark and reopen them afterward. Another option is to move those favorite tabs to a new Tab Group, as this process only deletes the tabs in the group. If you want to clear out the Safari clutter, you can close all but one tab with just a few taps. Here's how:

• Open the Safari app on your iPhone.
• Tap the icon with two squares in the lower right corner to view all your open tabs.
• Optional: If you have any tabs that you want to keep open, press and hold on that tab and select Move to Tab Group , as this process only does one tab group at a time.
• Long press on the thumbnail for an open tab . Pro tip: Use a tab you would like to keep open, as this will be the only tab remaining at the end of the process.
• Tap on Close Other Tabs.

Alternatively, you can long-press the tab button in the bottom-right corner of Safari and then select Close All Tabs to quickly close everything that's open, including the tab you're currently viewing.

How to automatically close old Safari tabs on your iPhone

Whenever you open a link from another app, odds are it opens in Safari and creates yet another new tab, making it fairly easy for your tab count to grow without you even realizing it. But you don't have to go through and close all your tabs on a regular basis. Instead, you can have your iPhone automatically close old tabs after one day, one week, or one month.

This is a great option if you have a tendency to rack up open tabs quickly. If you turn on this feature, remember to use the bookmark tool or reading list to easily recall any important websites to revisit later, which tends to be easier than searching through your Safari history.

• Open the Settings app.
• Scroll down and select Safari.
• Under Tabs, find the Close Tabs option and tap on it -- it should be set to 'manually' by default.
• On the next screen, tap the time frame that you would like Safari to close old tabs after -- either one day, one week, or one month.

How to organize Safari tabs on iPhone with Tab Groups

Maybe you like having 217 tabs open at once (I won't judge, I've been there) but you want to be able to find what you need a bit more easily. Safari allows you to use tab groups to organize your open web pages. For example, you could have a tab group for online shopping and another for housing your favorite news websites that you want to leave open to easily read every morning. Tab Groups allow you to organize your web browsing and are especially helpful if you have lots of tabs open at once.

• Open the Safari app on iPhone.
• Tap on the tab icon in the lower right corner -- it's the one with the two squares.
• Tap the menu icon at the bottom center.
• Select New Empty Tab Group or use the New Tab Group with # Tabs to create a group with the tabs already opened.
• Name the new tab group and tap Save.

Best MacBook laptops: Expertly tested and ranked

How to close open safari tabs on your mac from your iphone.

If you have a MacBook or iPad signed onto the same Apple ID as your iPhone , when you open the Safari app, and you tap on the two squares in the bottom right corner, you will see a list of the pages open on your MacBook below those open on your iPhone. It isn't possible to close them all down at once from your iPhone, but you can close them out one by one from your iPhone, so they are no longer open on your Mac.

• Make sure that you have Safari enabled under the iCloud settings first . Head to the Settings App.
• Tap your name , then iCloud .
• In Apps using iCloud , make sure the Safari toggle is green .
• Open Safari on your iPhone.
• Tap the tabs icon.
• Tap the plus to open a new tab.
• Scroll down on the new tab until you see "From [Your MacBook's Name]."
• There are two ways to close out these tabs -- you can tap and hold the entry to close, then select close. Or, you can click "Show All" then swipe left and tap close.

Tab group lets you have a folder of tabs for better organization. Using this, you can close all open tabs of a tab group by deleting the tab group. Learn all about Safari tab groups in our detailed guide.

Secondly, you can also enter the tab thumbnail mode and close all the other tabs except that one. Here’s how.

• Tap the two-square icon from the bottom right of Safari.

How to close all your Safari tabs at once on iPhone

There are two types of iPhone users: those that religiously close out their Safari tabs and those that have hundreds of tabs open at any given moment. At some point, there comes a time when you need to clear out all of your open Safari tabs and declutter your browsing experience. It can be a pain to close out every single tab individually, but luckily you don't have to. In iOS 17, there's a hidden button that'll let you close out all the tabs in a given Tab Group simultaneously. If you've been manually closing out tabs, you need to learn this crucial iPhone trick for Safari.

iOS 17 review: The bubble is now greener on the other side

How to close tabs in safari on iphone.

Recent versions of Safari split up tabs into Tab Groups , and this is something to keep in mind when trying to clear all your tabs. All iPhone users will have at least two Tab Groups: Start Page and Private . If you've created custom Tab Groups — either on your iPhone or on a device synced with iCloud — you'll have to repeat the steps below for each Tab Group.

• Open Safari on your iPhone.
• Tap the Tabs button in the bottom right corner of the toolbar (it looks like two squares stacked on one another).
• Press the X button to close an individual tab.
• Hold the Done button and press Close all tabs to clear all your tabs simultaneously.
• Repeat the process as needed throughout your Tab Groups in Safari on iOS. Close

Why you should clear Safari tabs regularly

Safari won't let you open more than 500 tabs in a single Tab Group, so all iPhone users will have to close out old tabs eventually. However, there's a case to be made for closing Safari tabs far more frequently than that. Having minimal Safari tabs in a Tab Group can make it easier to go back and forth between the ones you really need. Plus, you may notice a slight performance benefit to running Safari with fewer tabs, although it isn't as big of a deal on the newest iPhones . Still, it's a pain to close out Safari tabs on iPhone individually, so using the hidden Close all tabs button is incredibly helpful.

How To Close Windows On iPhone 13

• How-To Guides
• Software Tutorials

Introduction

Welcome to the world of iPhone 13, the latest innovation from Apple that offers a seamless and intuitive user experience. With its powerful hardware and advanced software, the iPhone 13 is designed to enhance your productivity and keep you connected to the digital world. One common task that every iPhone user encounters is closing windows or applications. Whether you want to close apps running in the background, browser tabs, or widgets, we’ve got you covered.

In this article, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of closing windows on your iPhone 13. Whether you’re a tech-savvy individual or a beginner, this guide will help you navigate through the iPhone ecosystem with ease.

We will start by explaining the basics of app closing on iPhone 13, followed by more specific methods for closing different types of windows. By the end of this article, you will be well-equipped with the knowledge and skills to efficiently close windows on your iPhone 13, optimizing its performance and freeing up valuable resources.

So, grab your iPhone 13 and let’s dive into the world of app management and window closing.

Understanding the Basics

Before we delve into the specifics of closing windows on your iPhone 13, it’s important to have a basic understanding of how the operating system handles multitasking and app management.

An iPhone 13, like its predecessors, allows you to run multiple apps simultaneously, switching between them effortlessly. When you switch from one app to another, the previous app may continue to run in the background, ready to be resumed when you return to it. This multitasking capability enables you to quickly switch between apps without losing your progress.

To view the active apps on your iPhone 13, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle of the screen. This action will open the App Switcher, displaying the preview cards of the recently used apps. You can swipe left or right to navigate through the apps and tap on the desired app to switch to it. Alternatively, you can swipe up on the app card to close it.

It’s important to note that closing an app from the App Switcher may not necessarily terminate the app completely. In some cases, the app may continue to run in the background, consuming system resources. However, most apps are designed to optimize their performance and conserve power when running in the background, so you don’t have to worry about manually closing every app.

Now that you have a general understanding of how multitasking works on iPhone 13, let’s explore the different methods you can use to close windows and manage apps on your device. Whether you want to close specific apps, background processes, or browser tabs, we’ve got you covered.

Closing Apps on iPhone 13

One of the most common tasks on an iPhone 13 is closing apps. While the iPhone operating system is designed to optimize app performance and manage resources efficiently, there may be instances when you want to manually close an app to free up system resources or troubleshoot any issues you’re facing.

To close an app on your iPhone 13, follow these simple steps:

• Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle, or double-click the Home button if your device has one. This will open the App Switcher, displaying the recently used apps.
• Swipe left or right to navigate through the app cards and find the app you want to close.
• Swipe the app card up and off the top of the screen. This action will close the app and remove it from the list of recently used apps.

Alternatively, you can use a gesture-based method to close apps on iPhone 13:

• Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle.
• When the App Switcher appears, swipe left or right to find the app you want to close.
• Swipe the app card to the left or right edge of the screen. This action will instantly close the app.

It’s important to note that closing an app in this way will only remove it from the list of recently used apps, and it may still continue to run in the background depending on its functionality and design. Most apps are designed to efficiently manage system resources, so you don’t have to worry about manually closing every app.

Now that you know how to close apps on your iPhone 13, let’s explore a method to force close apps in case you encounter any issues or if an app becomes unresponsive.

Force Closing Apps on iPhone 13

There may be instances when an app becomes unresponsive or freezes on your iPhone 13. In such cases, force closing the app can help resolve the issue and allow you to resume normal usage. Force closing an app essentially terminates its processes and clears its cached data, giving it a fresh start when you relaunch it.

To force close an app on your iPhone 13, follow these steps:

• Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle to access the App Switcher.
• Swipe left or right to find the app that is unresponsive or causing issues.
• Instead of swiping the app card up to close it, press and hold the app card firmly.
• You will see a red minus (-) icon appear on the top left corner of the app card.
• Swipe the app card up or tap on the red minus (-) icon to force close the app.

After force closing the app, you can relaunch it from the home screen and see if the issue persists. This method should be used as a last resort when all other troubleshooting steps fail, as force closing an app may cause it to lose unsaved data or progress.

It’s important to note that force closing an app on iPhone 13 is not a routine action and should only be done when necessary. Most apps are optimized to run smoothly, and force closing them may not have a significant impact on their performance or battery usage.

Now that you know how to force close an app on your iPhone 13, let’s explore the process of closing Safari windows and individual browser tabs on your device.

How to Close Safari Windows on iPhone 13

Safari is the default web browser on your iPhone 13, and it allows you to browse the internet with ease. When you’re done using Safari or want to close a specific window, you can follow these steps:

• Open Safari on your iPhone 13 by tapping on the Safari icon on the home screen.
• If you have multiple windows open, tap on the tab icon at the bottom right corner of the screen. It looks like two overlapping squares.
• You will now see all the open Safari windows represented by individual cards.
• Swipe left or right to find the window you want to close.
• Swipe the window card to the left or right edge of the screen to close it.

Alternatively, you can also close Safari windows using the following method:

• Open Safari and tap and hold the tab icon at the bottom right corner of the screen.
• A menu will appear with options like “New Tab,” “Close All Tabs,” and “Private.” Select “Close All Tabs” to close all open Safari windows.

By closing Safari windows that are no longer needed, you can free up memory on your device and improve overall performance. Remember that closing a Safari window will permanently remove it, so make sure you’ve saved any important information or bookmarks before closing it.

Now that you know how to close Safari windows, let’s move on to closing individual browser tabs on your iPhone 13.

Closing Individual Browser Tabs on iPhone 13

When browsing the internet on Safari or any other web browser on your iPhone 13, you may have multiple tabs open at once. Closing individual browser tabs is a handy way to tidy up your browsing session and free up memory on your device. Here’s how you can do it:

• Open Safari or your preferred web browser on your iPhone 13.
• If you have multiple tabs open, tap on the tab icon at the bottom right corner of the screen to view all open tabs.
• You will see all the open tabs as individual cards.
• To close a specific tab, swipe the tab card to the left or right edge of the screen.

By swiping a tab card off the screen, you remove that particular tab from your browsing session. This method allows you to close tabs quickly and efficiently, without the need to close the entire browser window.

If you want to close multiple tabs at once, here’s another method:

• Open the tab view by tapping on the tab icon.
• Tap and hold on a tab card to activate the selection mode.
• Tap on the other tab cards that you want to close.
• Once you have selected all the tabs you want to close, tap on the “Close” button at the bottom left corner of the screen.

This method allows you to close multiple tabs simultaneously, making it quicker and more efficient than closing them individually.

Now that you know how to close individual browser tabs on your iPhone 13, let’s explore how to close background running apps on your device.

Closing Background Running Apps on iPhone 13

Your iPhone 13 allows apps to run in the background, even when you’re not actively using them. While this functionality is useful for multitasking and quick app switching, it can also consume system resources and affect your device’s performance over time. In this section, we’ll explore how to close background running apps on your iPhone 13.

To close background running apps on your iPhone 13, follow these steps:

• Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle to open the App Switcher.
• You’ll see a list of recently used apps represented by cards.
• Swipe left or right to navigate through the app cards.
• Find the app you want to close and swipe it up and off the top of the screen.

By swiping up the app card in the App Switcher, you force it to quit, terminating its background processes and freeing up system resources. It’s worth noting that most apps are designed to optimize their performance and power usage, so you don’t have to manually close every app. However, if you notice that a particular app is consuming excessive resources or causing performance issues, closing it from the App Switcher can help resolve the problem.

It’s important to remember that force closing an app should be done sparingly and only when necessary. Force closing all background running apps at once is not recommended, as it may disrupt the normal functioning of certain apps and negatively impact your device’s performance.

Now that you understand how to close background running apps on your iPhone 13, let’s move on to closing widgets on your device.

Closing Widgets on iPhone 13

Widgets are a convenient way to view and interact with information directly from your iPhone 13 Home Screen. They provide quick access to important content and updates without having to open specific apps. However, if you want to remove a widget from your Home Screen, or clear up clutter, you can easily do so. In this section, we will explore how to close widgets on your iPhone 13.

To close a widget on your iPhone 13, follow these steps:

• Unlock your device and navigate to the Home Screen where the widget is located.
• Tap and hold on any empty space on the Home Screen until the apps start jiggling.
• Look for the widget you want to close. It will be indicated by a small ‘X’ icon at the top left corner.
• Tap on the ‘X’ icon to remove the widget from your Home Screen.
• Tap outside the widget area or press the Home button (or swipe up, depending on your device) to exit the jiggle mode.

By following these steps, you can easily remove widgets from your iPhone 13 Home Screen. This helps you customize and declutter your device, providing quick access to the widgets that are most important to you.

Additionally, it’s important to note that removing a widget from the Home Screen does not uninstall the associated app; it merely removes the widget display from the screen. You can always re-add the widget in the future if you change your mind.

Now that you know how to close widgets on your iPhone 13, let’s conclude this guide and summarize what we’ve learned about closing windows on your device.

Closing windows and managing apps on your iPhone 13 is a crucial aspect of optimizing device performance and ensuring a smooth user experience. In this guide, we explored various methods to close different types of windows, including apps, Safari windows, individual browser tabs, background running apps, and widgets.

We began by understanding the basics of multitasking on iPhone 13 and how to navigate the App Switcher to close apps or switch between them. We then learned how to force close unresponsive apps to troubleshoot issues effectively. Moving on, we explored the process of closing Safari windows and individual browser tabs to tidy up your browsing session and conserve device resources.

We also discussed the importance of managing background running apps and how to close them when necessary. Finally, we explored how to remove widgets from your Home Screen, allowing for a personalized and clutter-free experience.

Remember, while it is essential to close unnecessary windows and apps, the iPhone 13 operating system is designed to optimize performance and manage resources efficiently. Most apps are designed to run smoothly in the background, so manually closing every app may not always be necessary. Close windows and apps selectively when you notice performance issues or need to free up system resources.

We hope this guide has provided you with the knowledge and skills to efficiently close windows on your iPhone 13. By managing your device’s apps and windows effectively, you can maximize its potential and enjoy a seamless user experience.

So, grab your iPhone 13 and start exploring the various methods discussed in this guide. Discover the joy of efficient app management and optimize your device to its fullest potential!

Windows 11 2024 Update: What's new and why it's not Windows 12

andyrocks_globe 3/5/2024 TripAdvisor review

During my recent stay at Novotel Moscow City from 9th to 22nd February, I was pleasantly surprised by the warm reception I received from the duty manager Marika. Her friendly demeanor and efficient handling of check-in made me feel welcome and valued as a guest as always. I also want to extend my appreciation to the night manager Maria for her attentiveness and quick response to any requests or concerns I had during my stay.

1. Process of lamp light replacement should be managed more effectively. 2. It is too noisy in the inner rooms - noise from events (bad sound isolation) 3. All other aspects are on the good level.
