Answer 1

You can not remove from the recent but you can kill your application using command line,

kill [options] Kill all processes associated with (the app's package name). This command kills only processes that are safe to kill and that will not impact the user experience.

Options are: --user | all | current: Specify user whose processes to kill; all users if not specified.

I hope this will help you.
