If you can code what is required in Java, you might be able to kill another process using an extension.  Can you program in Java?   If so you might be able to create an extension .... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12036895/kill-another-application-on-android .

There is no existing extension that can do this.

There exists a shell command extension, out of the Thunkable community.

Maybe it supports the kill command?

Rummage around in the extension collections in this FAQ ...

Pavitra's shell extension is here ...

Shell command to list all processes (remembered from my unix days):

ps

ps -ef

See my attachments.

I was able to issue a  ps  command,

and identify process 283 as the AI2 Companion in the emulator.

Issuing a  kill 283  command killed the Companion.

Your mileage may vary.
