So I have been trying to hide content in my react native application when my app is visible on the app switcher when i go to recent apps.Initially I set FLAG_SECURE on onCreate but the issue there was i wasn't able to use BrowserStack usage, screenshots and screen recordings were blocked when using the app therefore I resorted to a solution where I set the FLAG_SECURE only when the onPause cycle is triggered and onResume I clear the flag, but there were limitations like Android 8 and below it wasn't supported(which i can live with) but now the solution doesn't work for new Android versions like 11 and on Android 10(on some devices ie Pixel)

In short, and in case you haven't come across a 'fix' yet, Gesture navigation doesn't handle FLAG_SECURE all too well. You should see the expected behaviour after switching to 3-button navigation.

I get this isn't an actual fix but it doesn't seem like there's much to be done about it.
