I don't think anything has changed. For years now, Apple has claimed
that you don't need to force close your apps, and this makes sense,
since why would a company develop a multitasking operating system if it
can't manage resources across multiple apps? That doesn't mean people
won't claim that force closing all of your apps is a good idea and
recommend that you should do it regularly.
You don't need to call up Apple to find out. A web search will reveeal
articles like the folloing:

Of course, you should close an app if you're having trouble with it, and
closing all apps and restarting your phone is always a good debugging
step if you're having systemic problems with your iPhone. If you think
that regularly closing all of your apps is improving the performance of
your device then by all means go ahead and do it. It doesn't really do
any harm except take a bit more of your time and use up a bit more of
your phone's resources, such as battery life.

I personally go by what seems to work best on my specific device.
I don’t mean that to sound negative, I usually go with what Apple
says. Someone on the list earlier said that Apple now says you don’t
need to clear the app switcher very much.
But, I have no idea if that is only with the newer devices, iOS 11 and
after, or what?
People like to quote Apple having said x, y or z, but they are hardly
ever specific. I know at least once, someone quoted an Apple support
person saying one thing and another saying the opposite.
So, I mostly now go with what works best for me and my devices.
I willing to be proven wrong.
HTH,

*Subject:* clearing the app switcher
Hi all. I remember from a long time back someone saying that it was a
very good idea to clear the app switcher and close all apps very
frequently. I clear mine every day or every other day. Is there a
change since several updates ago? Just wondering what is best to do.
Thanks.
God bless!
