App Switcher

Hi, how to disable or turn off App Switcher when playing games for iPhone XR? I always accidentally click the switch when playing so the apps are closing.

iPhone XR, iOS 13

Hi Emeowz,


Thanks for reaching out here in the Apple Support Communities. We see that you would like to disable the feature that allows you to switch between apps on your iPhone, as it is often accidentally invoked while you're playing games.

We're glad to help.


While this feature can't be disabled, you may want to check out this article for how the feature works:

Take Care.
