There has been recent comment (in newspaper tech columns) that several users
have found that Facebook doesn't close properly (as when not in use) in
recent versions of the app; that it's also draining the iPhone battery by
constantly updating one's location etc information in the background.
Facebook says that it's "investigating".

Maybe so and maybe no. I have read articles like this before and while this
may be correct theoretically, I think what the author does not consider is
that not all apps are created equal. How often have you seen something in
the What's New section of an app that menbtions the developer has fixed a
memory leak or fixed something which caused excessive use of battery power
or they fixed something which caused the app to remain active in the
background. I have seen all of these in the last 5 years at some point or
another so all it takes is a developer who hasn't done a good job with their
code and of course removing the offending app from the app switcher will fix
this. Therefore I happily continue to waste 10 or 20 seconds of my valueable
time once or twice a day to force quit the apps I don't use. For the amount
of time it took the author to write this article and post it, he could have
probably closed apps on his phone once a day for years to come especially
since I think a sighted person can swipe up and close multiple or even all
apps at once.

Sieghard

this one may cause some commenting. I admit I do this closing apps things a
lot.
