Recent Apps freezes on HyperOS

Bug Reports

Very often Recent app screen either freezes or doesn't let me pick any other app to activate. Only reboot helps to fix.

Problem seems to be the same as described here but instead with Nova it happens with Niagara:

This happens on my both phones: Poco F5 Pro with older HyperOS 2.0.6.0 VNMEUXM and Poco X7 Pro with very latest HyperOS

    I actually have the same issue on:

    • Poco F7

    • Xiaomi HyperOS (3.0.2.0)

    • Android 16

    • Niagara Launcher Pro (1.15.11)

    and I had it over years on:

    • Redmi Note 10 Pro

    • Xiaomi MIUI Global (14.0.9)

    • Android 13

    • Niagara Launcher Pro

    Only the above linked tip on Reddit helps:

    Thanks, I just tested it and it seems like a tap anywhere [to an empty place on the Recent App Screen] (except on the home/back button) to close the recent apps screen fixes it. It seems to work even if the memory status is turned off.

    Same here, I opened a similar issue.
