Join Garrick Chow for an in-depth discussion in this video Force-quit apps, part of iOS 12: iPhone and iPad Essential Training.
- [Instructor] If you ever run into an issue…where a specific app you're using…seems to be acting up or not working correctly,…the first thing you can try is to force quit the app.…Now, we've seen this before,…but you can force quit an app…by swiping up from the bottom of the screen,…on an iPhone 10 or later, to open up the app switcher.…On older iPhones you double-click the home button.…Then you just swipe up on the app that's not working,…to force it to quit.…You can then return to the home screen…and try opening up the app again…to see if that's fixed the issue.…If the app is still giving you problems,…you might wanna try restarting your device,…as we previously discussed, and if that doesn't work…and you think it's a problem specific to the app,…try going to the app store to check for an update,…or visit the app developers website…to see if any information is available…or if they have a way you can submit a question…or get support for the app.…
As I mentioned earlier, just as a reminder,…there's no need to go through and quit apps…
