Recent apps overview not working properly

[Fury82]

So, the overview for recent apps tends to not show me anything in the last few days... I use the phone a bit, and nothing there anymore. A restart solves the problem, but after some time... Boom... Does not show any recent app.

Anybody got some of that suggestions? 🙂

Apps that stop your apps in order to free up RAM memory. Or antivirus can do it too.

I do not use antivirus app and any app that empties the memory.

I'm having the exact same problem. After a reboot everything works but after a while the recent apps is completely empty.

No weird apps are installed...

I'm also experiencing this on my Xperia X constantly, and restarting the phone will do for a while as @2literpopcorn said above but it keeps happening.
No killer app or Antivirus or managing app installed.

I can try to find some info on this.

Hello, I also have this problem.

Here's what I have discovered:

1. The bug doesn't happen in safe mode.
2. Task killer apps aren't the culprit. I don't have a task killer installed but I still suffer from the bug.
3. The bug is most likely to happen when user runs resource-intensive apps such as games with 3D graphics or HD video recording/playback.
4. The apps are still running. They just don't show up.

I do not know how to start Safe Mode. But it behaves just my phone also.
I have the bug only recently, just like Pokemon Go. Can it be that this game causes this bug?

[Netjer_Draconie]

Ok i tested it. Pokemon Go has nothing to do with this bug, because there's the same bug without playing Pokemon Go.

I have the same problem. Phone was factory reset a few days ago, no task killers installed. I press the overview button and all I get is the small apps at the bottom and a message saying,"no recent apps". I restart the phone and it works properly. But at some stage during the day it will stop working again (maybe after using Google voice recognition. Not sure) and I have to restart again. Didn't do this on lollipop!

That's a third party acting up
