Thanks for posting this. I don't know that it really is, but I think it
would be, shall we say, a less stressful event to the phone than having to
restart, or having to go through that hard reset. I especially will use it
when MBraille sometimes gets to where I am making a lot more errors than
usual as I type, even though it really isn't me. Clearing the ram in this
way seems to get MBraille back to normal, even more thoroughly than removing
it from the app switcher and restarting it.

How to quickly clear the RAM on a suddenly sluggish iPhone, iPad, and iPod
touch
“Apps misbehaving? Phone acting sluggish?” David Nield reports for
Gizmodo. “If you’re experiencing any kind of problem with your iPhone,
then emptying out the device’s RAM can often do wonders.”
“Restarting your iPhone is one way of doing this, but there is a quicker
option,” Nield reports.
“Press and hold the Power button as normal until the familiar ‘slide to
power off’ option appears,” Nield reports. “Don’t accept the invitation
and don’t cancel either: Instead, press and hold the Home button. After a
few seconds you should find yourself back on the home screen with a fresh
slate as far as RAM goes.”
In the full article, Nield credits @MarcForrest

MacDailyNews Note: Make sure to use this tip after you’ve unlocked your
device. If you try it from the lock screen, you’ll just invoke Siri.
