Ice Cream Sandwich Multitasking

Posted by tharrison4815 on November 26, 2011 02:08 pm 8

The one thing thats always bothered me about Android is the lack of task management built into the OS. with ICS comes new promise. But there are some things I would like to know about the new multitasking list.

Android-4

Does the multitasking list on ICS actually show running applications or just "recent applications"? If you were to close an app using a 3rd party task killer would it dissapear from the list?

Does swiping away an app from the mutlitasking list actually close the app? As in if you run a 3rd party task management app is the app you swiped away no longer running?

Do the thumbnails ever update or do they always show a snapshot of when you last used it?

These questions need answering and I cannot seem to find a reliable source anywhere online. I occasionally find an answer online and then someone else disputes it and I cannot find anyone who actually seems to know.
