Simplified multitasking
When Task manager is accessed, the screen from which the application is launched does not disappear.
It will still be visible as a background screen in G900c, while the list of recent applications pop-ups from
the bottom of the screen. This has proven to be a more effective and user-friendly way of presenting the
Task manager feature for the user.
