You Do Not Need to Manually Manage iOS Multitasking →

The worst thing about this story is that the advice is repeatedly coming from the people working at the Genius Bar in Apple stores. There was a discussion about this on Twitter over the holidays and I received a bunch of comments from readers who’ve been given this same “advice” when they’ve taken their iPhones to the Genius Bar to diagnose some actual problem.
This happened to me when I took my iPhone in to diagnose battery issues. The Genius said “Well here’s your problem! You’ve got over 90 apps running!” It took everything I had to remain calm, but I wasn’t able to convince him he was wrong.
