Samsung Internet Secret Mode - Closes tabs after closing app from recents

ElSilva — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 03:54:07 GMT

Does anyone know if there is a way that Samsung Internet does not close secret mode tabs when the app gets removed from recents?

Is there a setting that can be enabled that lets us choose to automatically close those tabs or keep them open?

If not, I think that may be such a great feature. Kinda like iOS safari. It keeps the tab open even after closing the app from recents.

Thanks

I think in chrome and the samsung browser its been a feature few months ago added that unused or old tabs get deleted or removed after 7 days I do think theres a option to change that to more days

Thats for when the app is open only in regular mode. After the app is removed from recents, the secret mode tabs get closed

You could select "keep open" on the app so it doesn't close when you tap close all. But that will likely drain your battery.

You can also bookmark tabs in secret mode. I love that feature
