Clean App Switcher in iOS 8

You see recent and favorite Contacts in App Switcher after upgrading to iOS 8. Wish you could take them down? Follow along!

When you double click your home button, you see your recent apps which you can quickly switch between. With iOS 8 you also see avatars of your most recent and favorite contacts.

This feature is useful, but if you like it clean, you can have your way.

To disable your contacts from displaying in the app switcher -

• Launch your Settings app
• Select Mail, Contacts, Calendar
• Under Contacts section select Show In App Switcher

Toggle the switch to disable your recent, favorites, or both contacts.
