I have an app that works but does not show up in app manager but is there and shows up in other places on the S9+. How do I make it show up in app manager? It does show in app launcher. It has to show up in app manager to make it where it will not be put to sleep. Thanks

Is the any application to auto sort app icon ?
I know I can long-press the home key, but would like basically the same icons in the app drawer too. Is this possible?
I don't know of an app that will do specifically what you want, but you can set a gesture action with Launcher pro to display the recent apps list. It sounds like you want your app drawer filtered to show the most recently used apps at the top.
Hi all!
I just downloaded the app SwipePad, which lets you swipe from the edge and have a launchpad with my favorite apps, but i don't like the icon in the notification tray. There is an option to hide the icon, but if i close all apps in the task switcher, SwipePad closes too. Is there an app that let me force android to keep open the app without the notification icon? I have seen multiple apps with root support, that hides the icon, but keeps the app running, but that isn't build into SwipePad.
Thank you in advance

Anyone?
Bump! Sorry...
Whenever I close the app in the app switcher, the widget loses the current location for weather updates. What's worse is that all locations which I've added in the app are lost upon restarting and I have to select my location again.
I don't suppose the app has to be constantly running in the app switcher for the widget to work correctly?
Yes, usually if a widget is part of a standalone app, the app needs to always run. At least that has been my experience. I don't know about your specific app there though.
I am sure there are apps that make the widget run independently of the main app, but most I have seen seem to need the app running, or the widget won't function.
Turns out this widget doesn't need the app to be running after all. It's just that I had disabled the storage permission as per Android 6 permission settings and that caused a problem even though the app did not complain. I thought it needed to access storage only when adding custom background pictures, which I didn't intend to use.
What's interesting is that without the storage permission even if I left the app running, but it got bumped out of memory and needed to reload, it would also lose location settings. This makes me think there was some sort of virtual storage created in the absence of storage permission, so that as long as the app was running it could save the location there. But it gets erased as soon as the app is closed. Maybe a fail-safe solution for the lack of permission? I could be wrong.
This phone is amazing, only 1 issue for me, annoying app notification badges.
Anyone have an idea how to remove them?
Thanks

Yes but...I wish to keep the notifications but remove the icon?

This will not work on Facebook or Facebook messenger. I ended up having to remove them because no matter the app or phone settings, nothing could remove the badges.

I have the same question.... specifically for snapchat.
Use can disable either with app permissions or by installing package disabler for lg. It's $1.99 in the play store but worth it. No root required.
