Hi, It has worked this way in all versions of IOS 7. This is the method that I always use, rather I am closing one app or all of them. I find it to be very quick and efficient. Scott Duck

When I focus on a running app, I'm informed to do a 3-finger swipe up to close the app -- that works fine, but I've discovered a much more efficient method to close an app if there are a number of open apps you may wish to close at that time. Here's how to close a number of running apps quite efficiently: - press the HOME button twice to launch app switcher - focus on any given app you wish to close - execute a one-finger swipe down (should change action from default to close) - do a one-finger double tap to close this app - to close additional apps, simply focus on said app and do the one-finger double tap It seems that the one-finger swipe down changes the action for all apps from default (open) to close so do not tap an app you want to continue having open. ---- Holland's Boy, Bill - "Be careful about reading health books.
