Have you ever closed the wrong application on your Android smartphone when viewing recent applications? Did you start, for example, writing a message and accidentally closed the app? Did you want to see the entity and the reference that was in an email but accidentally ended the program? The next version of Android 11 will give a great help in this field with a nice new feature.
Android 11 arrives with a novelty that comes in handy!
The Android Police website reports that there is a new feature in Android 11 DP3 (Developer preview) that allows users to bring to life the last closed application in the recent smartphone menu.
Apparently Android 11 keeps the last app closed in the system’s memory until users exit the recent menu or close a second app. To do this, just move your finger from top to bottom. In practice, it is the opposite gesture to what people use to close applications in the same menu (sliding upwards).
However, this is not exactly something new. It is that this change had already appeared in a beta version of Android Q. The point is that afterwards it did not reach the normal version.
XDA-Developers editor Mishaal Rahman was the first to report this news. In fact, he published a video that even reveals this feature in action and can be seen here. However, some users claim that it doesn’t always work very well.
However, there is an important point to consider. It may happen that this feature, although very interesting and very useful, does not reach the final version. It has happened to others.
Still and considering that it is already the second time that the new functionality appears, it must have come to stay. In fact, closing an application unintentionally is a problem that happens many times, and as such this novelty will come in handy.
