Recent Apps Issue

I have a news app that appears only to update correctly when I remove the app from the recent apps list.

Is there a way to remove all cache for all apps on phone at once?

I've tried clearing cache data for the app but hasn't helped.

Send me a PM and I can try it out and see if I get the same issues. To me it seems like there might be something wrong with the app.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Open up Settings > Storage and tap "cached data" in the list to clear cache for all apps on the phone.

That solution didn't help unfortunately.

It's a news application, and when I clear the app from recent apps then go back to the same news filter I see the most recent at the top, however if I hit the back button either on phone or app then go back to the same filter the top news story that I had as the most recent isn't showing at the top , unless I clear from recent apps go back and its there showing in most recent order.

What can be causing this? could it be bad memory?

Seems strange. Which app is this? Have you tried re-installing the app?

It's a local news app, and yes, I've tried installing again.

When I check out the site on web it shows in correct order all the time.

If you want to know the app I can let you know by PM?

If I use the home button on phone instead of back button then go back to app it opens where it left off by showing it as it should be.

Should I not be using the back button on phone?
