"Maximize iPhone Performance: Keep Background Apps Open"

Closing background apps on your iPhone does not save battery, make your phone run faster, or stop companies from tracking you. In fact, it may use more battery to constantly close and reopen apps. This myth has persisted since the early days of the iPhone, but Apple has confirmed that force quitting apps does not improve performance or battery life. The most effective way to address these concerns is to turn off "Background App Refresh" in your settings.

"Android 14 and One UI 6.0 to Improve App Management on Samsung Devices"

Samsung has partnered with Google to address the inconsistencies in background app restrictions across Android devices. With One UI 6.0, foreground services of apps targeting Android 14 will be guaranteed to work as intended. Google's goal is to make it easier for developers to create apps that work consistently across different Android devices. The changes in Android 14 include a new requirement to declare foreground service types, a new user-initiated data transfer job type, and new Google Play policies to ensure appropriate use of foreground services. Developers are encouraged to send feedback on the Android 14 APIs and contribute CTS-D tests to help catch consistency issues.
