iPhone iOS 4.0 just enabled multitasking, but still most people not confirm about how to use it, so here we have got one tutorial on using multitasking.

Apple enabled multitasking on iOS 4.0 only for iPhone 4 and 3GS, but if you Jailbreak using our guide the you will have Multitasking on iPhone 3G too. Check Our JailBreak Guide for Your suitable iPhone from here.

Press to launch a different application from your Springboard. In this example we will launch the YouTube application. Then select a video you would like to play.

Step Four
While the video is playing double press the Home button. Notice a new multitasking menu will slide up from the bottom of the screen.

Step Five
Press to select the Photos application we just had open. Notice how it nicely appears right to the photo we left it at.

Step Six
Double pressing the Home button will again bring up the multitasking menu. If we swipe to the left we can see all the applications that are currently running or suspended in the background. You can tap any one of these to launch the application.
