Samsung still hasn't fixed this bug in their launcher, which has existed (and I've personally witnessed) on every Galaxy S device since the Galaxy S3.

That bright blue box around an icon. That is not supposed to be there.

Never seen this bug in my S8, Note 8 and now S9+. Is there any set of steps that will reproduce this bug?

[jhimmel]

Guessing it's from some theme or app. Have never seen anything like it.

[mustang7757]

I get that on my s9+ and pixel 2 xl

[mustang7757]

it happens when leaving banking apps

Not a theme or app. That specific one is a Samsung bug. (also not caused by a banking app)

[mustang7757]

It not just Samsung it's on my pixel also , and if you go into Bank app and don't sign out just go straight to home screen this happens

[Almeuit]

TBH .. Never seen this on any of my Android phones. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[GibMcFragger]

I saw it a few times on my S9+, and my Note 8 before it.

[Mooncatt]

Not having owned a Samsung device, I thought it was the inclusion of Apple Music as bloatware.

I'm still not sure what bug is being referred to here, though.

What is this click bait...

Try a different theme. I never use the stock theme so I never see this "bug".

[williams448]

I had this issue on my S8+ and my S9+. Not enough of an issue to complain tho. Just tap on a blank space somewhere on the screen & it goes away. No specific app, and it happens with stock and downloaded themes.

It's not the theme. It's a bug in the launcher itself.

Not an issue, more amusing that I've seen this on every Samsung device I've ever used save for the Galaxy Nexus.

That's odd as I don't have this issues then. Not on my S8+, Note 8 and my S9+

This is not the worst thing that has ever happened to anyone.

Well, someone is also getting it on his Pixel. I still feel something that was installed is causing it. I have never seen that on my Samsung devices. I also just logged into 2 banking apps and went to the home screen without logging out just to see, but nothing. I guess you would have to run a clean Samsung phone for a couple days before installing anything to see if it still happens.

I've seen this on several different phones, most notably when I had my Bionic plugged into my lapdock. It's the cursor. If you attach a keyboard through your OTG adapter or Bluetooth you can replicate it and move it around with the arrow keys. Not sure why it's showing up without a keyboard though.

[mustang7757]

I have mentioned this before to the beta team when I was on s8+ and they didn't know what was causing this so ...no biggie
