Favorite icon blinks after gesture home #2278

Describe the bug

EDIT: I see it looks like same thing happens on Oneplus phones, that it's caused by system animations... Feel free to close...

When you gesture swipe home from a favorite app, and the animation finishes, it's icon on Niagara screen blinks out of existence for a split second. Looks like if it refreshed.

Doesn't happen with back gesture, as that also has a different animation.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open favorite app
  2. Gesture navigation swipe to go home
  3. Animation shows the app icon travel to it's place. When it gets there, there's a 50% chance it blinks

Does the issue also occur with other 3rd-party launchers?

Problem doesn't occur with other launchers

Hi @the753q, Thanks for reporting the issue.

Yes, the same reason applies here as well; the system launcher is causing the issue as it is responsible for handling the app closing animation on third-party launchers.

Fact: RealMe, Oppo, and OnePlus stock launchers are essentially the same under the hood, as they all utilize the same code, just a different name.

Doesn't happen with back gesture, as that also has a different animation.

On third-party launchers back gesture does not trigger the app minimizing animation; thus, you don't observe the issue.
