Abstract
Managing applications in light of user use habits is disclosed. An indication that an application has been switched from a foreground environment to a background environment is detected. User historical use information associated with the application is accessed. Based at least in part on the user historical use information, it is determined that the application is not likely to be switched to the foreground environment. In response to the determination that the application is not likely to be switched to the foreground environment, one or more resources associated with the application are recycled.
