Why Is There No User Friendly Way Of Closing Apps In Popular Mobile And Tablet Operating Systems

Which one is the better mobile operating system?

I will answer with regards to iOS and Android, as I have worked with these systems.If we go by the definition of what an OS is supposed to do (memory management, file handling, multi-programming support etc...), iOS and Linux(Android) both stand toe to toe.But, if you are asking which one is better for making apps, it gets complicated a bit. Let us take a few Points of views.Look and feel:This is very poor way to pick an OS. Windows Vista had nice look and feel but failed to do more important things. Besides what looks good changes from person to person, we can achieve the same look and feel on both platforms for a particular app.Development:iOS apps are tailor made for the device. The dev is aware of the exact specs of the device and user can be assured of the quality. But unfortunately, the programming (until now) is done with Objective-C. It is a very old technology (Apple has recognized this and is launching a newer language "Swift").Android on the other hand, has been built to be versatile. It will run on microwaves, cameras, watches, and a wide range of phones. Java is a well studied and understood language, and devs can be trained to use best programming practices. It doesn't fall too far behind on performance (most mordern languages use JIT wthich has been proven to be as efficient as pure compiled code). But the advantages of supporting many form factors is huge. It is no wonder that it has become the most popular mobile OS, even though the apps are criticized to not look as good.User Testing:For Android, it is as easy as giving a beta copy of your apk to a bunch of users. Apple makes it more complicated. If you are doing a proof-of-concept, better wrap up a basic prototype on android to get quick feedback.Maintenance and support: Google usually provides "support libraries" to let most of the older devices use the newer features. Apple on the other-hand ensures that the users upgrade their software and mobiles so backward compatibility is a non-issue. This helps to give good customer support. But Apple also sometimes breaks things and you need to rework things after some updates.Dev tools:Xcode is an OK tool to work with, but the iPhone simulator is simply the best. Android simulator is slow and frustrating to work with. But, the android studio is one of the best, most complete development suits available. If you can work with a test device (to avoid the simulator) you will enjoy Android Studio.Hope this helps you with your query.

How can I remove pop-up ads from an Android mobile?

A2APop-ups that are not browser based can manifest in 2 ways. Either as a service or as an application on Android. The best course of action is as follows:1. Install Malwarebytes on your phone2. Disconnect from the Internet to stop further pop-ups and updates of the malicious application.3. Check your running applications and kill any malicious ones you find (Or do not recognize, be vigilant, some “system” processes are not system at all)4. Uninstall malicious applications if you find them on your browser5. Scan with Malwarebytes to potentially remove malware.6. Turn on the internet. Check if the problem is no longer present.7. If the problems persist, factory reset it.If I am honest, it is far easier to just factory reset your phone and be done with the problem. Resetting is not that big of a deal, but if you do not have backups, do the steps up till 5, make backups and then factory reset. Good luck!

Do the battery saver applications actually work? If they do, which is the best battery saver application for Android?

No they don't. If you really want to know best way to save battery, follow this post.Brightness level: change anytime you want. The battery will only be consumed when you use your device so don't worry about the brightness level.Running apps: close apps from the recent apps tab. If you feel as if any app is working in the background, close it from the app management by force closing the app.Notifications: Disable show notifications option from the app management of the apps you don't want to be notified about. This will help in stopping unwanted battery usage in notifying you about the app activity.Uninstall apps: uninstall those apps which pops up or shows their notifications without you accessing them.Startup apps (root): Android root users can disable startup apps from app called Android tuner. This app has many power user functionalities so use with caution.Greenify (root): hibernation is a good way to keep the apps in check. This apps allow you to pause apps you want to use later from the same progress as current. Just select the app from the running apps list inside greenify and make it hibernate long as u want. The app will resume from where it was.Lite apps alternative: using lite alternatives of heavy apps is also a better option.Charging: charge when battery is low and charge it to 100%if possible. This will help out in refreshing the battery itself.Closing services: closing Wi-Fi, GPS, mobile data and any other background services may also help.Stay away: for God's sake, do not keep your mobile phone always in your hands, slide it in your pocket or put in on the desk our table wherever comfortable and do other tasks. This will surely save a huge amount of battery.Hope this will help everyone.

Do you think that windows metro will kill apple?

Straightforward answer: not even close. I've used both operating systems and Mac is way more user-friendly and intuitive. Metro interface works very good with touchscreens but is a major pain in the neck with a mouse, even after the latest updates and anyway Microsoft has a long way to go as a late competitor. Using Metro interface with a mouse is horrible, you look desperately for a CLOSE button but there's no way to close an active window the way you normally did with Windows and I'm not personally big on it. So it's good for millennials or people used to work with mobile devices/tablet or anything but a desktop, definitely a bust if you use a desktop for work unless you buy a new PC, which is definitely not gonna happen. Microsoft strategy assumed that everybody would rush to stores buying a new pc to enjoy the wonders of the tile interface...In fact, they're going back to the past with Windows 9.  Good attempt, but not enough.
