Yes. Press Command + Q to exit the simulator.
This will close all applications running in the simulator.
When you press the home button returns only to the main screen, without leaving applications (ios 4 or later) due to multitasking.
You can also double-click the Home button, click and hold the icons at the bottom of the screen until a red circle appears, and click on the red circle to close the running application.
