Lock dock icons

[FF22]

For some reason, the rightmost bottom icon changes to a recent app used. I want it to stay at the Camera app. It keeps changing to the NYTimes or other. I don't recall changing anything but... I want it static - CAMERA. Is there some setting I messed up?

As per @B. Diddy on another thread: Try long-pressing any empty area of the homescreen, then Home Settings>Suggestions, and turn off "Suggestions on Home screen".

Then put your camera app on your home screen (if not already there), long press the icon and drag it to where you want it on the favorites tray and release.

@FF22,
Or maybe it's because your homescreen is chock-full of icons!
Perhaps try cleaning-up your homescreen by clearing all those icons off of it — and putting them in the Display > Edge Panel . . . so that that beautiful autumn view of those beautiful mountains & golden Tamarack (Western Larch - my favorite) trees can actually be seen!

Hope you've been well.

Carne Mt. Off, way off, Hwy 2. It is a beautiful basin and then rambling trail up to the summit. Went there about three or four times during Larch season. Always spectacular. The snow only enhanced it.

Yes, quite spectacular My daughter & I did the hike on a beautiful September day one year whilst spending the week @ Chelan. But the Tamaracks were still lime greenish, mostly, except for some slightly golding at higher elevations.
Did you ever disembark off the Lady of the Lake, or Lady Express at Lucerne, or hike around those Glacier Peak Wilderness access trails, or visit that Holden Village Lutheran Christian Center, by the old mining site?
I had a friend, (she was an Alpine Lakes Wilderness Ranger), who agreed to spend a fall/winter at Domke Lake, up above Lucerne, working for the ol'timer (I forget his name – that lived, permanently, up at Domke Lk), tending to & caretaking him and his 2 or 3 cabins that he rented out to hunters & hikers &c during the fall/winter months. I guess he had been there for 30~40 years – after buying (or lifetime leasing?) the cabins & lake from the forest service.
I hiked in—via REI map & compass—from the Entiat River one November weekend, (with snowshoes, gaters, ski poles, and my two Llewellin English Setters). It was a deep snowy hike in & out :~\
I remember she was sorry she had agreed to that gig, for by the time her contract was up, in March, she had a bad case of 'cabin fever', so later that same month she accepted a job as a US National Park Ranger, at Grand Canyon National Park !

Yes, we spent two nights at Lucerne. On the way in and on the way out of a Winter cross country ski trip in the Glacier Peak Wilderness. Six nights in the backcountry. Quite the adventure.

Very multi-modal as they say. Drivel up to boat. Boat to Lucerne. School bus up to the snowline, Snowcat up the Holden Village Then cross county ski. On the way out, the boat went up to the top of the lake , Stehekin, so we had about an hour there.

But just after I arrived in WA I hiked from Rainy Pass to Stevens Pass. Another adventure among many
