[Bug] Icons for uninstalled apps never disappear #91

Open joe-batt opened 6 years ago

joe-batt commented 6 years ago

The icons for uninstalled apps stay forever, even after a full scan or restarting the launcher. I'm using Android 8.1. This bug might be linked to #90 as it never occured in versions prior to 0.6.0.

Maybe related: #39 #27

Thanks for pointing the bug out. It is related to #27. I didn't write any implementation yet, because I can't test it myself.

One work-around is to mark an app Hidden (any app), and then click on the original app that you want to disappear. Somewhy, it did disappear after said procedure for me. Restarting and full scan indeed didn't work.

Issue still persists with new version 1.0.2.43 from FDroid

@vn971 method works for me as a workaround

@esmoak this issue is the result of changed background limitations in Oreo+. I've tried to implement the package list update process in newer API but it didn't work. If someone is interested in helping, I can share a patch.
