8. Opening and switching
applications
Multitasking is easy with Android because
you can keep more than one application
running at the same time. There's no
need to quit an application before opening
another. Use and switch between several
open applications. Android manages each
application, stopping and starting them as
needed to ensure that idle applications don't
consume resources unnecessarily.
