Where is the 'Recent Apps' icon on the ZTE Quartz Z797C phone

[fenpeppertree]

I have just purchased a ZTE Quartz cell phone, model # Z797C, running Android 4.3, and there is no 'Recent Apps' icon in the docked menu. This phone has only 3 icons in the dock; the 'Back' icon, the 'Home' icon, and the 'Menu' icon.

I have tried searching online to find something about this, but long pressing on the 'Menu' icon or the 'Home' icon did not do anything.

How can I access recent apps without having to open a task manager?

Have you tried long-pressing the Home button?

Mine is from tracfone, and I had the same question until I accidentally double tapped the home button. Try that.

blodgettmike: Thanks for that information, it worked; but I don't really like it. It seems to only work if I double click it just right, not too slow. Just a little too inconvenient for my liking. I wish ZTE would have just left it in the dock,
