Hi Keith, As I understand it, and app is completely closed if it isn't in the app switcher, so it can't drain the battery. However, if you set up mail to do push, for example, it will check for mail frequently, thus using battery. You might check to see which apps send you push notifications and turn that feature off for apps you don't care about. Also, some apps check your location frequently. If you set up a location-based reminder, for example, such as reminding you to do something when you leave the current location, it will check frequently to see whether you've left that location.
