because open applications keep running
even when you open another application. There’s no need to quit an application
before opening another. You can use and switch among several open
applications. Android manages each application, stopping and starting them as
needed, to ensure that idle applications don’t consume resources unnecessarily.
Opening an application

your Home screen for faster access. No matter where the icon is, on the Apps screen or
your Home screen, just touch it to open and use it.
