very useful app, it would be good if you can make it works with hard button other than the search button, too many app is aiming at the search button already.
Thats the only one thats programmable that I know of.

Works pretty good on legend too

I have the newest kernel for the nexus, running 5.0.6 and I installed this and I lost my desire drop down bar, so I went into recovery and reflashed the drop down notification bar, and I got the boot loop. Long story short, the more recent app and the black desire drop down notification bar have some sort of conflictions going on.

which launcher do you use? and are you sure you used this app rather than the framework mod? Its unlikely this app interferes with anything else.

You should add this to the OP so people don't keep asking :D

Hmm, I'm still experiencing a very long time (5+ seconds) to open the app if I haven't used it in a while. Is anyone else experiencing this?

You're right, Android probably keeps Home long press in memory. And I don't think users have a way to lock an app in memory. Do you think a service might help? Or am I the only one who sees a delay from time to time?

My delay is 3sec., if pressed frequently 1sec.

Well done, Britoso,

Maybe you could make a version replacing current build in, then it may possible to make hard long press appear it. :)

Possible make the background dim when this MoreRecent open?

I only can't read application's names at the bottom.
But i can scroll to read their names if I want.
Great app.
Thanks a lot.

Great app

Great app...works on non-rooted Nexus One.
Congrats on your first successful app. :)

Suggestions...landscape mode and option to replace the long press home button with your app. I know replacing long-press of Home button won't be available on non-rooted devices.

I have this, and it works beautifully, however, i recently installed HelixLauncher2 and it does not work, it only shows me the 6 most recent apps.

Long press on search, not home.

Landscape mode doesn't work? Are you on the latest version ?
Please provide a link to an app that uses home long press with root.

Replacing long press on Back, Home, or Menu is impossible through an Android app.

Anyway... Eagerly awaiting the next version :)

Nice app :)

Is there a Widget in Android that shows "Recent Programs" on the HomeScreen? in single row? I find it very practical because homescreen becomes one stop shop instead of switching among Homescreen, taskmanager and app drawer.

thanks

Try appswipe or taskos.
