Answer 1

There is no API provided for gracefully terminating an iPhone application. Under the iPhone OS, the user presses the Home button to close applications. see link text

Answer 2

exit(0); will terminate your application, but as i know we can not call exit(0); or terminate in an iPhone application. Instead we can put an alerview without button, "saying please quit the application".

Answer 3

Please see: How do I programmatically quit my iPhone application?

WARNING: It is possible to quit the application by calling exit. Applications calling exit will appear to the user to have crashed, rather than performing a graceful termination and animating back to the Home screen. Such usage provides a negative experience and is strongly discouraged.
