Why do apps in my iPad mini's multitasking bar automatically restart?
This is very annoying. The apps that are supposed to be running in the background on my iPad mini always seem to close. Sometimes the app I last used won't be closed, but everything after that is. They still show up in the multitasking bar at the bottom, but when I open them, they have to load again.
I know this doesn't happen on other devices, because both my parents have an iPad 2, and for them, apps never close by themselves.
Is this just something standard for the iPad mini? Is there any way to fix it? I'd really like to have my apps on in the background, and it's very annoying when saved documents don't get saved, or I have to restart things that have already taken me forever.
Thank you for your help, if you can give it.
iPad mini Wi-Fi, iOS 6.1.2
