Which phone do you have? On some phones, you can pin or lock the app in place in the Recent Apps screen. But realistically, the Recent Apps/App Overview screen isn't intended for the user to organize their apps. As the name suggests, it's showing your recently used apps, so it will tend to be ordered depending on use.

Locking the app in place should work on that phone. Bring up the Recent apps, tap the app icon at the top of the screen that you want to lock, then tap "Lock this app."

This is normal behavior if you choose one and open it, it will go to first in recent apps as it mentions the recent app list.

You can download Samsung good lock and use Home up module under tasker and choose center most recently used app
