Application switcher—The application switcher (7)
contains the icons of currently open applications. The icons
of the three most recently launched applications are
shown on the application switcher. If several instances of
an application are open (for example, multiple web

browser windows), the group has one application icon. To
see all running applications, tap

.

To change to an application, tap the respective icon in the
application switcher. If you hold the stylus down on an
icon, a tool tip is shown.

When you receive new e-mail or chat messages,
authorisation requests and responses, or group chat
invitations, the icons on the application switcher blink to
indicate these events.

Leaving applications running in the background increases
the demand on battery power and reduces the battery life.
