Since you were quoting, and replying to, a message about bringing up the Control Center, it was not at all clear tht you actually meant bringing up the Task-Switcher, and thereby quitting Apps.
When you double-click the Home Button, and bring up the multitasking bar in iOS7, you get a display with App icons on the bottom and app "mini-screens" above them. To quit an App, swipe upward ON THE MINI-SCREEN OF THE APP, not on the icon at the bottom.

Wow, that's a pretty bitchy post. My problem is that I have been aware that any app I started kept running in the background.
The old solution was to double click the Home button then click and hold on an icon at the bottom of the screen. Find the app you wanted to quit and click the "X" on its slightly dancing icon.
I was trying something similar with iOS 7 and it wasn't working to quit apps running in the background. I have now figured that out (drag upwards on the medium-sized icon above the small icon at the bottom of the screen).
I do not see how to quit apps from the Settings window. Would you like to share you secret?

Good lord. Sorry. I have had less than half an hour with iOS 7. I got it this morning, then went to work for the day. Then came home. I actually don't know what you are talking about: "Control Center"
What the hell is a control center. What the hell is a task switcher. I don't love Apple any more. That is sad.
The computer for "the rest of us," I DON'T think.

Probably shouldn't have chosen to break the thread and reply to a Control Center question.

As I said in the posting you quoted above, certain *phone functions* can be started or quit from Settings. I said nothing about starting or quitting *Apps* from Settings.

Don't swipe the icon. Swipe the small window above it. Upwards.

Howdy.
The Control Center (this is Apple name for it) is a new feature in iOS
7.
To open the Control enter you press on the very bottom of the screen
and swipe up. Sort of like a window shade being raised is what it
looks like.
It's the opposite of swiping down the Notifications Center from the top
of the screen.
Control Center doesn't have anything to do with quitting apps. It has
volume, brightness, and other Settings like Airplane mode in a new
Center designed for quick access.
The problem with Control Center is that the feature to swipe up from
the very bottom of the screen just doesn't seem to work properly.
I takes me 3 to 6 tries before it will swipe up and open.
Others are having the same problem.
The problem seems to be present on both my iPhone and even more so on
my iPad which, at first, I didn't think support the new feature.

Duh, I don't even know the difference. I just got iOS 7 this morning before I left for work at 5:45 AM. They keep changing the terminology. I'll catch up, and I'll try to keep quiet awhile until I figure out the new stuff. I don't know how people like you keep up with all this. I'm mostly at work all day and doing volunteering and teaching classes and so on, the rest of the day.
I can't read about everything. As I recall, Apple was supposed to be the intuitive OS for "the rest of us." Now I have to instantly know the difference between a "Control Center' and, um, "something else." What the HELL is a Control Center?
I have definitely lost my love for Apple. And since I upgraded I have had at least five notices about my iCloud and Apple ID passwords being messed up. I really didn't need that.

I don't undertand the difference. And since you don't choose to share your secret, I will figure it out for myself over time.

I had this problem at first, but have found that if I swipe up from the very bottom of my screen with the pad of my thumb, It usually opens with one try.

Again, can I suggest that you (and anyone else who wants to know how to use
their iPhone) download the manual. iPhone > iBooks > Store > Search.
Or download the PDF from apple.com support if you prefer to read it on a
