Hi, I just started using the samsung M31s and there is one feature i can't seem to find from my previous Xiaomi MIUI, is that when go to recent, if I click close all, it closes all the apps. But i wish to mark a few apps to be killed only if i personally swipe them off not by close all button. In Xiomi MIUI, it was possible by long holding that app in recents and locking it from being killed. Idk where is this option in M31s.
Any help is appreciated!

Yes, M51
If you are thinking why split screen and pop-up view isn't available its because members app doesn't support it.1627814589069.png

It's slightly different here. On the recent apps screen, tap on the app icon, and tap on Keep Open. Then, even when u tap close all, this one app remains open. You have to tap on the lock icon on the bottom right of the app in recent, to close it. See screenshots for reference...clipboard_image_1627809622271_1627809622271.jpgclipboard_image_1627809621255_1627809621255.jpgclipboard_image_1627809623157.jpg
