Issue: auto refresh problem #169

Open KamrulShahed opened 2 months ago

KamrulShahed commented 2 months ago

When i click on app icon and start searching for an app after search result comes the app list gets refreshed and shows all apps. I have to type more to get the search result again. It is annoying and time consuming. Its even more annoying when i click on an app in search result and it gets refreshed and i click on wrong app and its opens. I have a lot of apps installed and my phone doesnt have high processing power. Thats why its happening i guess. The solution could be auto refresh apps in app list in background instead of when clicking on the app menu icon. Another way is to add an option to turn on or off refresh to auto and manual. Im talking about all app list not recent apps in dock.

Could you attach a video? I cant reproduce this

Here is the video. I searched, search result came, when i was about to click then it gets refreshed and shows all apps again. Most of the time it takes more time to refresh than the video shows and i end up clicking on wrong app. It also take 5+ seconds to refresh recent apps each time i open any app when using more than 10 to 12 recent apps to show in the dock. And the refreshing time increases if the app number increases. And 20+ recent apps almost hangs the app and makes it unusable. I dont have this problem with another similar app. That refresh instantly no matter how many apps i have or use in the dock. I am using samsung m21 phone with android 12 and oneui 4.1
