Re: [Ubuntu-phone] The problem with "no background processing for apps"

[Alan Bell]

one of the particular strengths of the Ubuntu Touch UI is that you can 
see what apps are running and close the things you don't want. This is 
considerably easier on Ubuntu than it is on Android (long press of the 
button on the right that nobody knows what it does, then see your list 
of apps and wonder how to close them, then give up) On Ubuntu it is go 
to the switcher and swipe up or down to kill things. This could be 
enhanced, to renice the applications. Drag them up a bit to make them 
faster, drag down to slow them to a crawl, swipe all the way down to 
kill nicely and swipe up to nuke it from orbit with a kill -9 (it is the 
only way to be sure)
