After updating my Galaxy S24 Ultra to One UI 8 (Android 16), I've noticed that some apps occasionally disappear from the Recent Apps screen, even though they are still running in the background.

For example, if I open the Amazon app and then exit it, it sometimes doesn't appear in the Recents view, but when I open it again from the home screen, it resumes exactly where I left off.

This happens with multiple apps, not just Amazon. If I go to the app settings and force stop the app, then open it again, it appears normally in the Recents screen - but later, the issue comes back.

So the app stays active in memory, but it's not shown visually in the Recent Apps list.

Device: Galaxy S24 Ultra

One UI Version: 8.0

Android Version: 16

Is this being worked on at all? It drives me nuts, I've been having this problem for a few months now.

Happening to me too. Actually, trying to move this page between browsers, the browsers vanished.

This paired with apps forgetting where I was/rebooting completely when I exit and re-enter them (making Photos super irritating) and Modes and Routines settings being totally locked has me pretty annoyed atm, what's up with this...
