I did the new software update for my Samsung galaxy s6 and its changed so much which I dont like. My main concern is with the application manager.
I used to be able to see 'running apps' on my phone and close them down manually but it seems in this update, it doesn't exist. I can no longer tell which apps are running. Is there a solution to this?
 
Advanced Task Killer is a good app... It's in the Play Store... Which version of Android is it on now (to find out go to Settings>About Phone/Device and it will be on there somewhere)...

If so, clear all data from them and uninstall... Make sure to clear data/cache or files could be left behind... It would also be useful to get ES File Explorer first (run it once as soon as you install, before uninstalling CM apps) and it will prompt you to delete any files/folders left behind after uninstalling...
