I have a music app (looking at you,
Synology DS audio) that tends to freeze up on occasion. Well, actually, it doesn't freeze, but rather seems to get stuck between songs sometimes. Anyways, this prompted me to hunt down, without much hope, how to "force close" an app, to use a more Android-centric term.
To my surprise, turns out you can...
- Hold down the Wake/Sleep button to get the red shut-down slider.
- But instead of sliding that sucker, hold the Home button for a few seconds.
This takes you back to the home screen and seems to shut down all apps, which took care of my problem.
