Link Safe

The new Overview screen displays your open apps and, if the feature is active, enables you to pin an app or

game, thereby cancelling the menu buttons. But the Overview itself can be tweaked, enabling you to specify various settings including how many running apps are listed.

On a rooted Android device, head over to Google Play and search for the utility Recently by Chainfire. Install it on your phone or tablet to proceed, and then launch. Grant super user access to proceed, then toggle the switch in the top-right corner of the display. You’ll see a number of options, such as Age Limit, which determines how long an app can stay in the Overview, and Entry limit, where you can cut down the number of apps that are listed in the Overview screen to just running apps. Many other options are available; use them to customise the screen.
