I can't believe that I am even having to bring this to somebodies attention but it is an ABSOLUTE MUST. Everywhere in the computer world we are always being asked "Are You Sure? Are You Sure? And many times it is totally unnecessary. However there is currently a MAJOR NEED for an "ARE YOU SURE" with the Galaxy s5.

When you Press the menu button (the bottom left key) you are presented with a screen that gives you 2 options:

1. Task Manager and

2. CLOSE ALL

DO YOU KNOW HOW EASY IT IS TO ACCIDENTLY FLICK THE CLOSE ALL BUTTON AND EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING is closed in the blink of and eye. Yet, if you went into Task Manager and asked to close just one application it would ask you ARE YOU SURE !

I am a highly skilled typist, keyboarder, IT Professional and SmartPhone user but I must hit that stupid CLOSE ALL accidentally at least 3 times a day.

This has got to be changed. This is DEFINITELY one place where we WANT YOU to ask us "ARE YOU SURE".

Please inform me if I am the only one on the planet that has this problem.

THANK YOU VERY, VERY MUCH.

Switch to another launcher, you'll love it. On a side note, I switched over to Touch Wiz to see if I get this "are you sure" issue in multi tasking - I don't (maybe because I'm still on kitkat).

I use Nova Launcher and the menu button brings up the screen the OP mentions. The bottom right button is "close all" and it does just that. I have never had a problem with it. Ever. I have to say, without malice, that I have never ever ever
hit that stupid CLOSE ALL accidentally at least 3 times a day.
 
Not trying not to sound like a smarta$$ here, but this wouldn't be a problem if you took the time to actually read the screen. The option to close individual items is right next to them on the right side...
