Pin Apps On Samsung Galaxy A36/A56/A26
Begin by turning on the setting that allows you to pin apps. To do this, unlock your Samsung device and tap on the Settings app on the home screen or app drawer. Then, scroll down and tap on ‘Security & Privacy‘ within the settings.

Following this, scroll down and select ‘More security settings‘ to proceed to the next step.

Now, find the option ‘Allow apps to be pinned.’ You’ll notice a toggle switch next to it. Simply toggle ON the switch to enable this feature.

After this, launch any application you’d like to pin. Once launched, tap on the Recent button (three vertical lines) at the bottom left corner. If you’re using gestures, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and hold for a few seconds to access the recent apps.

Find the app you’d like to pin and tap on the app icon. From the menu that appears, tap on ‘Pin This App.‘ The app will now be pinned, and you cannot switch to other apps or navigate away from it until it is unpinned.

If you’d like to unpin the application, press and hold the Home button for a few seconds. You’ll get the notification that the application has been unpinned. However, if you’re using gestures, swipe up from the bottom of the screen and hold for a few seconds.
