"Close all" button location

[AlienX]

The close all button in the task manager sits right under the thumb results in accidentally closing all apps. It should be located at the top as shown in the image.

Also closing all your apps over and over again is not great for battery life as it starts over the task over and over again. So it should be relocated to discourage unnecessary closing everything all the time.

I don't accidentally close things and if I am remembering correctly it's been like that for years now. I have never had that issue personally. I'm more concerned with the battery pill being hard to see and not changing to a dark setting no matter what wallpaper you apply like it used to. That's the main issue I have if I had to pick 1 thing

Coming from Google Pixel, I would say yes, it is bad placement. Samsung is probably doing it because of poor memory management, so they want to close all the apps all the time.

I guess it's different on certain phones

Yes, it is at the bottom right now. The screenshot attached with the post was my recommendation to move it on top.

Oh, no! No! This would be really annoying and contrary to what Samsung was looking for when placing the search bar at the bottom too. I have NEVER had this problem.

Force closing apps all the time should be discouraged. So there is no need to place it right under the thumb.

"Closing apps on your phone does not save battery life and may actually harm it. Apps on iOS and Android are typically suspended in the background, consuming minimal power. Force-closing them requires more energy to reopen than simply resuming them from a suspended state, leading to increased battery drain."
