  • @Fiishylol Thanks :) Sorry if I sounded like a troll, I was just frustrated with some new phone I got... :)

  • found out that on my phone there is already a maneger but couldent vind it . also most new apps cant be turned of with this

  • That's pretty retarded. Google needs to come up with something better because you end up having to kill your apps every 20 minutes if not less just to save the battery. Does this sound right top you?

  • @wukotic Not really, depends on the app. Mostly it has some part still running to let you open the same app faster again. Other apps like music players will keep running so you can keep listening while doing other things, its called multitasking. You have to jailbreak iphones to access this at all which is even worse.

  • So, one needs to go to the market, download and install just to be able to close a f***ing application...? :/

  • Lol when he looks to the right I laugh my ass off just because theres nothing there.

  • Thanks This Helped Me A Lot!

  • Omg i just got my droid and you helped me :)

  • Great vid. Downloading it as we speak. Except it's called Advanced Task Killer. Not App killer. It's right there on the screen I don't see how it was misread.

    That's my asshole moment of the day haha.
