Recent apps

[Mark04276]

Is there a button on the bt-500 remote that will bring up recent apps screen, I am pretty sure I tried every button to no avail. I don't know if this isn't available with this remote and P6 or if I am missing something. I know if I double click home it closes all recent apps.

On Nvidia shield if you double click the home button it would bring up recent apps screen. However it didn't have a close all option, you had to close each individually. I do like the P6 where it closes all apps but was handy to be able to go to recent apps to switch back to an app that was just using

My initial post was for a  buzztv, P6. You said it wasn't available on any box. I pointed out that it is available on another box. Do you mean it isn't available on any BuzzTv boxes? If so, not a major issue, just nice to have that's all

any box refers to buzztv only

we don't discuss other boxes or iptv apps

buzztv only

you could install an app manager and assign one of the colour buttons to open it

I started thinking that way too but now thinking I might be able to use button mapper, it has that as an option, I don't know why I didn't think of trying that before. I will have to try it out later when I get home.

Found my fix: okay my button mapper app would not work to accomplish what I wanted. So had some time to look into this further and found this app called tvquickactions pro (in play store) and it is also a button mapper but has a feature tab that has a recent app feature that does work exactly like I wanted. Bonus this app has an lock app built in that works awesome. I won't have to go searching for that now. Has some other features too that I will explore later on.
