When I press the Home button it doesn’t fully close, but resides in memory.

When I press the Home button it doesn’t fully close, but resides in memory. I would like to restart an app from scratch and not keep its latest state.

How can I programatically close when the home button is pressed?

    To get your app to close when the home button is pressed you need to add an entry for UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend to your Info.plist. This causes the app to revert to pre-4.0 behaviour which is as you describe.
