Returns

Remarks

Return a list of the tasks that the user has recently launched, with the most recent being first and older ones after in order.

<b>Note: this method is only intended for debugging and presenting task management user interfaces</b>. This should never be used for core logic in an application, such as deciding between different behaviors based on the information found here. Such uses are <em>not</em> supported, and will likely break in the future. For example, if multiple applications can be actively running at the same time, assumptions made about the meaning of the data here for purposes of control flow will be incorrect.

This member is deprecated. As of android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES#LOLLIPOP, this method is no longer available to third party applications: the introduction of document-centric recents means it can leak personal information to the caller. For backwards compatibility, it will still return a small subset of its data: at least the caller's own tasks (though see #getAppTasks() for the correct supported way to retrieve that information), and possibly some other tasks such as home that are known to not be sensitive.
