just noticed with iOS 26 that the swipe up does not close some apps, you have to use the three buttons, should be a way to reset and go back to the swipe up to close app if you do not do multi tasking, or is there another work around now.

Original Title: swiping up on apps
iPad Pro, iPadOS 26
In iOS 26, some apps may remain active when swipe‑up gestures are disabled for multitasking. Currently, the only workaround is to re‑enable full gesture controls in Settings > Home Screen & Multitasking > Multitasking Gestures and restart the device. This restores swipe‑up to close apps without needing the three‑button method.
What setting?
Thank you! This setting change fixed my issue.
It is in this string above.
"If you go to Settings > Multitasking & Gestures and select Full
Screen Apps, all apps will open full screen and can be closed by swiping
up."
