Help Why do random apps sometimes open when I unlock the screen?

[JohnJSal]

Hi everyone. On my Kindle Fire (2015), sometimes when I swipe the lock screen to unlock the tablet, instead of just going to the home screen as usual, some random app will launch. Sometimes it may be an app I had been using previously, other times something I haven't opened in a while.

Before I put my Fire to sleep, I always return to the home screen, so I know it isn't that the app was still actively running when I turned off the screen. Also, I sometimes close all my apps as well, meaning they weren't even running in the background.

Does this happen to anyone else? Anyone know how I might fix this?

Thanks!
John
