How to close running apps by flicking them off the screen WebOs style

[sheharyarali]

Hi Guys,

Just got my HTC 8X yesterday. Great phone apart from the battery life. Anyways I'm still getting used to the new OS. Now yesterday I was able to close running apps by simply flicking them off the screen. Today I cant. Did I mess up the settings somehow?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

As far as I know the only way to close up apps is by using the back arrow.

No webOS style action there although ms should really licence that feature! HP said they don't want to build phones anyway...

You must've mistaken it with ICS

I am actually coming from the Note 2 but Im positive it was on the HTC 8X when I flicked it off the screen. If it wasnt then im just going crazy

Now that actually is a possibility if you're positive WP8 doesn't have this feature.

You don't.

I do wish Microsoft had snagged the WebOS UI design guy instead of ****ing Google. :eck:
