You have your answer (and probably want to remove the app), but one little note here:

In Windows you want as much free RAM as possible. You close all the apps you aren't using, you even use Task Manager to close things you don't need, just to free up RAM.
In Android, unused RAM is wasted RAM. Android has a task manager as part of the operating system. It moves apps in and out of RAM as
it needs to. (It also keeps the current state of an app when it moves it out, so if you choose an app from the recently used app list [those apps aren't running, they're not necessarily in RAM, they were just used recently], it "opens" in the same condition it was in when you stopped using it. It's Android's way of multitasking, since normally you can have only one window open at a time.)
But if you want your phone to run more efficiently, stop using a task manager. The app you close may just be needed in a few minutes, and the phone has to spend time and battery moving it back into RAM. If Android needs RAM to move something into, and it "thinks" that "that" app won't be used in a while, it'll move it out of RAM - but keep its current state. It's like hibernating your laptop - everything comes back just the way you left it. It's just done on an app-by-app basis in Android.
