When an Android app is closed the OS keeps a record of its state so it
can be restared quickly.
How do I tell it that when an app is closed it should really be closed
and all variables wiped?

Can't the app reset its own state as part of its own internal shutdown process?

Er... maybe.
That's what I'm asking about.
I'm not even sure what to call the process (of the app not really
shutting down)
