After the One UI 8.0 (Android 16) update. Close All button fails to close any apps and just sends me to home screen. Has anyone had this problem and suggest a fix?

1. Wipe device cache in recovery. See this post for steps, as well as other post-update tips:

2. Download Good Guardians from the Galaxy Store and install & run the Galaxy App Booster module.

Try clearing cache for One UI Home and System UI in settings > apps. You'll have to show system apps for System UI (see screenshots). 1763525109045.jpg1763525109064.jpg

It could be a software glitch. Try a soft reset. Press the volume down & power button at the same time and hold until the phone powers off and back on again. See if this helps.

Im now realizing how much information I failed to provide in my initial inquiry, I did try the soft reset before but I did try it again and sadly it did not help

It could be a possible 3rd party app. Try restarting in the safe mode and try the button. If it works then it's a third party app.
