Thanks for the suggestion but the process described below closes the app
when it is open and places one on the home page, but the app will still show
on the app list.

Hello. "Hidden" is definitely the best word to describe this command.
Not many people know about it. IOs provides a way to force quit
applications. This is normally used if an app is non-responsive, but I
have used it a few times when I've been too lazy to go into the app
switcher. (lol) To force quit an app, do the following:
1. In the app you want to force quit, hold down the power button until
VoiceOver says "Slid to power off."
2. Release the power button, and hold down the home button. In a few
seconds, you will be returned to the home scree, and the app will be
closed.

Subject: Alt F4 on iOS
Hi all,
In the event I may be missing something, is there an equivalent for
Alt F4 on an iOS device? I would like to launch an app such as Clock,
set my alarm, then simply close the app completely. As is I'm having
to go into the app switcher and go through the process of forcing an
app to close. I realize Apple does what it does, and I realize that
ultimately there may not be many memory resources used, and I realize
I'm using a different OS, but there might be a hidden gen of a command
I've not come across, and I'm hoping someone out there may know what
this close app command might be. (Smile).
