I may have a rogue app!

[RionDunn]

Hi All!

So I may have a rogue app, someone else brought this my attention in another thread regarding my Note 5. Can anyone suggest which app this may be? If anyone recogizes which app potentially caused them issues let me know! Looking for a quicker easier way of fixing this issue.

Check the screen shots below, any advice would help greatly!

Nope, stock Samsung launcher

Oh ya? Like what? Is there anything I should get rid of. I was thinking about Zedge. Maybe I'll uninstall that and see if that helps.

I use Zedge all the time, have been using it for years.

Keep, Sheets and Slides came on my Nexus 5.

Yea I use these apps regularly and you would think they are legit. Like there wouldn't be any issues with them seeing they are developed by Google. Not sure what the stature is of a "rogue" app? I would assume there would be a better chance of it being caused by a third party app instead of a first party like Google apps.

Oh not saying those apps are bad, those are the ones that came on my Nexus.

Yea I had the Nexus series and haven't been so impressed with the battery life. Samsung devices seem to be able to hold their own with the Google eco system and all other features Samsung offers. I honestly think Samsung killed it with the Note 5. Just inquiring about the minor hiccups.

SNote went bonkers on my tablet a while back. It was chewing through battery running longer than my screen; #1 app on my battery time. I had to force close it.
