    How to close Android application?

    I got some code..may be this is helpful to you

    Intent startMain = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
                    startMain.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
                    startMain.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
                    startActivity(startMain);

    call this on your button’s click event,It’ll exit the application
    and yes..before you exit.just call System.gc()..I know it’s just a warning.but it may be helpful in releasing some memory
