yyes, double tapping the home button and swiping the app off. after i do this, it still stays open. say I have messages opened up. after im finished using it I double tap the home button and swipeit off. then I'll open up a different app, say photos. after I finish using photos and double tap the home button to close it, messages is still open. if I close the app a second time then it stays closed.
