    Question Which apps add unwanted icons to home screen?

    Starting today I am seeing unwanted icons on mt home screen linking to Google Play. How can I determine which of the apps on my Nexus 7 is adding the unwanted spam so I can remove the app?

    Probably safe to say that it's from a free app that you installed at some point. You could check out user reviews of your installed apps in Google Play and see if anyone complains about unwanted icons/shortcuts.
