recent apps button not working properly.

[spackmanstephen]

I'm getting to the point where I'm have to press the 'recent apps' button more than once for it to bring up apps that are open.

Is there a fix for this?

Have you tried clearing cache in recovery? http://forums.androidcentral.com/go...e-nexus-7-2012-2013-cache-partition-wipe.html

I have the same issue on both my nexus 7 (stock, rooted), and G note 2(stock rooted). I think it's an Android bug that hasn't been addressed. Sometimes all the recent apps will be there, sometimes two or three of the most recent apps will be missing. Not a huge deal but it can be annoying sometimes.

Do you have a third party launcher installed?

I had the same problem until recently and posted a workaround on the official bug tracker:
