Does anyone else have their recent apps replaced with recommended apps with no remedy in the latest UI update? I constantly use the recent apps because there are a few apps I use all the time, but now it seems that I don't have that option anymore, and it only gives me a listing for stock apps from Samsung that I never use... I've gone through the settings, in the logical places, but it appears I don't have a proper option to change this... It just allows me to use recommended apps or not have anything show up when I hit the recents button... is there a remedy for this?

Yes, that's exactly right. Very frustrating to have this changed...

Same on my Fold 3 following the latest update. Can now only use or select fixed recommended apps. No option can now be found for recent history apps. This very annoying to have a useful feature disabled following an update.

Completely agree - it was one of the few things that made up for Samsung's UI prioritizing their proprietary apps that I don't like using... now it's just another annoyance that makes doing something simple take much longer

Same problem , after the update 4.1 recommended/frequent aps , seems not working as the previous version.

If any idea how to fix ?

It seems like there is no fix for this... such a frustrating move with this UI - looks like the only option is to turn these off and have nothing there...

I can't even get it to turn off. It keeps popping up and comes um no matter where I swipe left or right side top middle or bottom... no help from support

Facing same issue. Now there are 4 apps always there which are of no frequent use. previously apps use to get replaced with frequently used apps.

At least I'm not losing my marbles here, this has been bugging me for days!

Has anyone tried the system cache clear yet and if so any joy?

It seems from others that have tried this that it does nothing...
