How to Close Apps From Draining the Battery on a Huawei Ascend
The Huawei Ascend is an Android smartphone with multitasking abilities. If you close out of apps by pressing the "Back" or "Home" buttons, some apps will minimize and continue running in the background. Running applications drain the phone's battery. You can extend the battery life on your Ascend by closing apps instead of minimizing them. Close the apps through the phone's menu system, or from inside the application itself.
