The app process "Celtics" runs in the background at all times using memory. Even if you close the app, do a OS restart, and/or havent used the app in days or weeks. And there is no way to turn off this behavior from within the app or in Settings. The only way I know to turn this off temporarily is to open an app like Free Memory or System Activity Monitor and if the app process itself crashes.
I have 500+ apps including a ton of Sports Apps (Bruins, Patriots, NFL, ESPN, WEEI, etc) and none of them exhibit this type of behavior. They update their content when you open the app. There is no other reason to be running if the app isnt open and updating. Some apps will continue to run and update their info if you dont know how to close them properly. But this is the first Sports app Ive used that always runs no matter what you do including a restart.
Please fix this or at least allow users to change this behavior within the app or in Settings. Thanks!
