Hi, To clarify these gestures:
• slide up from the bottom centre of the screen until you feel the first haptic blip, to go to the Home Screen. This does not officially close the app that you were in, but moves it to the background and makes the Home Screen the focused app/screen. • move your finger from the bottom centre of the screen upwards until you feel the second haptic blip to bring up the App Switcher. When the App Switcher has focus, you can swipe left or right through the various apps you’ve previously opened, and either re-open them or remove them from memory. As you swipe left or right, the app is announced. You can double-tap now to open that app, or do swipe up with three fingers to remove it from the App Switcher which closes it and removes it from the App Switcher. You can also use rotor actions here. That is, swipe up/down when on an app in the App Switcher to either activate or close the focused app. Some of this may be a technicality with terminology, but thought I’d explain.
