How To Force Quit An App On Iphone 6

How to Force Quit iOS Apps Rarely, you will need to force quit an iOS app. While iOS is generally very stable, every once in a while you'll encounter a third party app that misbehaves. iOS apps can freeze or become stuck, and you'll usually know instantly because the iPhone or iPad becomes unresponsive to touch behavior, or something within the app is clearly running amuck. A stuck app is different from a normal crash, which randomly quits an application, and it's different from a full system crash which usually brings up the spinning wheel logo.

When an iOS app becomes unresponsive, the best thing to do is to forcibly quit the app using the trick we're going to demonstrate here, the app can then be relaunched and usually is sufficient to remedy the apps situation back to good working order again. If you've never done it before you will find the process is actually similar to turning off an iOS device, but you stop one step short of that. The whole thing only takes a few seconds and it's extremely easy to do.


Let's walk through exactly how to force quit unresponsive or frozen apps on the iPad and iPhone. As you will see, this is not the same as normally quitting out of an app in iOS.

How to Force Quit an App in iOS 6

This procedure will be the same to forcibly quit any app on any iOS version for any iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Assuming you're in the app that you wish to forcibly quit from, do the following:

  1. Hold down the Power button of the iOS device until the "Slide to Power Off" message appears, and then release the power button
  2. Slide to Power Off as seen when Force Quitting an app

  3. Now hold the Home button at the base of the screen until the app forcibly quits, this can take several seconds

This is what the second combination looks like:

Force Quit an App on iPhone

You will know force quitting was successful because the iOS app will immediately close and you will be returned to your home screen and icons on the iPhone or iPad.

At this point, you can usually just relaunch the app and use it as normal again. Most data should remain intact and you'll be exactly where you left off, that is particularly true with apps that sync to iCloud, though you may lose some stuff on apps that are not

Force quitting apps should not be necessary most of the time, and often just hitting the Home button then returning back to the app can be enough to unstick an app that is seemingly paused or otherwise not responding. If you have tried that and discover the app is still completely unresponsive to user input or, as is often the case, stuck on a blank white loading screen of some sort, then force quitting and then reopening the app can often be a solution to get it working again.

iPhone and iPad apps should rarely freeze, but if you continuously encounter stability issues with certain applications you can try to delete the application, delete all of it's user data, and then download it again with a fresh install from the App Store. That is often enough to resolve problematic app issues but if those steeps aren't enough may want to consider making a backup of the device in question, and then resetting to factory defaults or restore the device from scratch to try and resolve the problems. Remember to make a backup beforehand with those methods, otherwise you would lose user data.

It does not matter what version of iOS is running, this will always force quit the app, whether on a much older iPhone or iPad or a brand new model with the latest versions of iOS.
