closing apps

on my new iPhone 12 mini when I swipe an app off does that close the app? or is it still running in the back ground?

Closing apps I have an iPhone 11 running the current IOS. I need to close down an app. I did what Apple suggested as in swiping up from the bottom of the home screen but nothing happens. I can swipe every direction except from the bottom up. So what am I missing? Thanks

Unless specifically required to do so, no apps run in the background. Unless an app is misbehaving, there is seldom a reason to force close it.
