Recent Apps Button Only Showing Samsung Apps

[usergLmEtcSzmM]

After the most recent update to my Galaxy S21, I noticed the 'recent apps button' located in the bottom left corner now only shows Samsung apps (calculator, calendar, alarm clock, file folder, etc.). It used to show the most recent apps used and would dynamically change based on my most recently used apps. This is how I've navigated my phone for years, and now it has just magically disappeared, making it extremely inconvenient to access my most recently used apps.

Same issue here, and more... most frustrating is the back and home buttons not working, and then lots of freezing in general

I see 3rd party apps in mine, my phone is the A52 so maybe there's some difference?

What month update does your phone have?

I am having the same issue with my recent app button. My issue started after I dis the One UI 4.1 update.

Same issue here, only showing stock apps and not refreshing based on my recently used apps. Very inconvenient as I need to quick switch between apps for work and school. Pls fix ASAP.

S21 here and also experiencing this issue. Very annoying as I use that feature a lot. FIX IT.

Same issue with the recent apps bar only showing recent Samsung apps on S21 ultra. It appears that something has been broken in the latest firmware that needs to be addressed and fixed. The issue occurred immediately after updating.
