How to Clear Recent Apps on Amazon Fire Tablet
Are you struggling to manage the apps on your Amazon Fire Tablet? If you find that your tablet is running slow or you simply want to declutter your app drawer, clearing recent apps is a quick and easy solution. In this article, we will guide you through the steps on how to clear recent apps on your Amazon Fire Tablet.
Step 1: Access the Recent Apps Menu
To begin, you need to access the recent apps menu. This can be done by pressing the square-shaped button located at the bottom of your tablet. This button is often referred to as the “Recent Apps” or “Back” button, depending on the version of your Amazon Fire Tablet.
Step 2: View Recent Apps
Once you press the recent apps button, you will see a list of apps that you have recently opened. This list typically shows the apps in the order they were opened, with the most recent app at the top.
Step 3: Clear Recent Apps
To clear recent apps, you have two options. The first option is to swipe down on the app preview to close it. This will remove the app from the recent apps list. The second option is to press and hold the recent apps button for a few seconds. This will bring up a menu with several options, including “Clear All.” Tap on “Clear All” to remove all recent apps from the list.
Step 4: Clear Individual Apps
If you only want to clear specific apps from the recent apps list, you can do so by tapping and holding on the app preview. This will bring up a menu with options such as “Close” and “Remove from Recent Apps.” Select “Remove from Recent Apps” to remove the app from the list without closing it.
Step 5: Manage App Settings
To prevent certain apps from appearing in the recent apps list, you can adjust the app settings. Go to the “Settings” app on your tablet, then navigate to “Apps & Games.” From there, select “App Manager” and choose the app you want to manage. In the app’s settings, you can find an option to prevent it from appearing in the recent apps list.
