Just wondering if anyone else has run into this "bug" that I am seeing on my Z Fold 5. I'm on the latest software update, no betas or anything. Since the last security push (I think a week or so ago) I have been randomly losing everything on my second home screen. My "Main" screen still has all the icons as I would expect, but when I swipe to my next screen, it's just completely blank. Rebooting fixes it, but it happens enough that it's really annoying. (Because of course that's where I keep most of my frequently used apps) Just curious if I am alone on this one? Thanks!

@UncleBelvis Could you have accidentally inserted another home screen there? If you continue to swipe do you have a 3rd or more home screen with the icons that you are looking for?

I thought about that too, but unfortunately, no there are no other home screens. I only use two so I'm not sure what would happen if I had a third one. If they would all be blank, or just the second one would be. Maybe I'll try that just to see.

I have the same issue. All icons disappear on my 2nd and 3rd home screen but not the first. Eventually they come back. Not sure how to fix it when it happens.

Well I just have always rebooted. A couple of days ago Samsung released an update for their Home Launcher. I updated it with an APK since it wasn't showing as an update on mine. So far... No issues. I'm hoping they fixed it.
