I have an ongoing, annoying, head-scratching problem.
Daily, and following no pattern that I can discern, the 'Uncategorized' category appears, with one specific app in it. The app -is- definitely accounted for by existing in my 'All Apps' category. Let me illustrate some of this...
Here's my menu; its visible categories are the only categories I use; in other words, I don't have to scroll down to get to any of my in-use categories:
Now here's my 'Media' category:
Notice 'F-Stop Pro.' This app is different from all my other paid apps; it has one icon that came from the free version, and a second icon (the one you see) for the key that turned it into Pro.
The second icon -does- open the app, so there's no need to have the first also here; I just leave it in 'All Apps.' [I only look at 'All Apps' when I want to torture myself, imagining swiping through a zillion apps like other people--who don't know there's a better way--do daily. ] Here are their entries in System Settings:
Despite repeatedly making sure the first app is in 'All Apps,' thereby preventing it from being uncategorized, this is what happens:
Looking at the settings for 'All Apps,' it has UNCHECKED itself!
Once unchecked and, therefore, no longer existing in a category, 'Uncategorized' creates itself again with that one app in it:
So WTF?! What do you think is going on?
In case you're wondering, yes, I have put it back in my 'Media' category (and others) and the problem disappeared. There seems to be some...THING...about this specific icon being in 'All Apps'...well, NOT being...well, you get the idea. I hope.
