I am working on an iPad app. Sometimes it get crashed (I know the reason) but I am wondering why the app does not close even after a crash! When the app crash I got some error related to crash in console but the app does not close. It even appear in the multitasking bar (I can see that when I press home button two times). I am wondering is there some kind of setting for this? or this is a normal behavior?

To fix Android apps that keep crashing: To do this, go to Settings and open Apps. Under Your apps, you'll see a list of the apps currently installed on your device. From the list, tap the app that keeps crashing and tap Force stop in the bottom right corner. Then try opening the app again.
This usually occurs when your Wi-Fi or cellular data is slow or unstable, causing apps to malfunction. Another reason for Android apps crashing can be a lack of storage space in your device. This can occur when you overload your device's internal memory with heavy apps.
An Android app crashes whenever there's an unexpected exit caused by an unhandled exception or signal. An app that is written using Java or Kotlin crashes if it throws an unhandled exception, represented by the Throwable class.
If you are running the App from Xcode, the debugger will still be attached so the crash will not terminate the process. You can use the Xcode debugger to take a look at the stack, inspect variables etc. Only when you stop the app in Xcode will the process be completely terminated.

@Mike Weller is correct.
It is typical behavior of the simulator to not close the app upon a crash as the debugger is designed to stop at the point of code where the crash occurs (for obvious reasons!).
If you want to check it on device for your satisfaction. Connect your device, run the app once on it via xcode. Close app (stop on xcode). Then disconnect the device.
The app will be now installed on your device like any other normal app. Run this app and do whatever causes it to crash. You will see that the app will close and you will be thrown back to the iphone springboard screen.
As for app appearing in the multitasking bar, it has already been mentioned here that the presence of the app in the multitasking bar does not mean that it is still running. This is vital difference in architectures between ios and android.
The multitasking bar is NOT a task manager. The ios philosophy is that the user does not need to know that an app is running or not. He only needs to know which apps he has run in the past.
