Increase the number of recent apps Android shows with MoreRecent app
Quick Share:
Want to increase the number of recent apps that your Android phone shows? Well you are in luck as XDA forum member britoso’s debut application happens to fulfill this very requirement of yours. MoreRecent is the name of the app. Details after the jump.
The need for this app arises when you are no longer satisfied with your Android OS showing the 6 most recent apps you used. Android shows the recently used apps when you press and hold the home button for a certain time period.
MoreRecent is more on the side of a normal app and is accessible from the App drawer. This app is able to show a maximum of 15 apps used recently. The app can also be launched by long pressing the search button. The developer future work is oriented towards bringing this app to lower resolution devices and make the background transparent in a better way. The app has been tested on Nexus One and works perfectly.
Download link and installation instructions can be found here.
