Double tap recent apps button tip

[Cprice]

I'm not sure if any of you are aware of this, but double tapping the recent button will quickly switch you to your previous app.

I use text and WhatsApp on a daily basis, so if I open the Messages app and then open Whatsapp, double tapping the recent button with switch me between the 2 apps until I open another app.

I'm sure this works on other devices as well.

Indeed a very useful shortcut. It's a standard feature on Android Nougat, for once Google adds something actually worth having before OEM UI (like MultiWindow since the Note II)

Yup it's been there for what seems like for ever...

Ya know, it's one of those feature I was excited about when I first found it and then I completely forgot about it til now so thank you for reminding me!😁

it is such a small feature that makes navigating the Android os so much better.
