Hi Lawrence,
If you're not sure what I mean by finding my history, that's probably why I couldn't locate the answer myself. So the best way for me to describe what I mean, is to say over the past few days I may have opened an app, gone to a website, received and sent a text, checked my email, and so on. On my XsMax I can swipe from bottom left up and to the right, slowly, and see all that I've last done in a series of overlapped history(?). That's the long and short of what I'm trying to accomplish on the SE.
Hopefully I've done a better job this time. Apparently I don't know the jargon for this type of action, lol
