Other common offenders that come to mind include ES File Explorer, Flash Keyboard, Z Camera, and anything from APUS. Any of that ring a bell?
It looks similar to Omni Swipe, but not quite a perfect match.
How many apps do you have installed? If it's not a ridiculous amount, could you list them?

Found this thread -- I think it's the same thing: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...ll-circle-icon-applications-quick-launch.html
Yep -- it looks like it's related to DU Battery Saver: https://www.behance.net/gallery/30752547/DU-Battery-Saver-Review-Optimize-Your-Smartphone. I'd uninstall it completely. DU is about as trustworthy as Cheetah Mobile (which is to say, not at all).

Samsung Galaxy S6: Had Search Buzz, as seen above. Uninstalled Photo Editor and the adware was gone. We don't know where that app came from.
It was a photo editor app that I had deleted! It was 2 photo editor apps and 1 game where the last ones I added. And so I deleted all 3 to see if it was them and it fixed itself so I'm thinking it was one of the photo editor apps. I can't remember what they where know. Sorry.
I had the same trouble and it was winding me up.. go into your installed applications and fir something called
PHOTO EDITOR .... uninstall it and it will be gone.. i found it in my applications uninstalled it and its gone now.. happy days.. good luck people.. let me know how you get on.

This looks an awful lot like "upday" it's alongside flipboard to the left of the first home screen.
It was an app called "my camera" took me all morning to find. I think it's a yellow camera for the app.
Looks like this. I reinstalled to make sure. Still give you the swipe from corner of screen with the magnifying glass there but it didn't pop up on my phone e yet, so there must be a way to disable it. But as soon as I deleted this all the magnifying glass was gone.

A Samsung Android 7
My problem is that when I ran an update a search bar popped up on the home page and NOTHING can remove it. I know how to get rid of applications but not this one. If you can help me, fine. If not let me know and I will just call my company,
Is anyone there?
Must be sleeping. Bye

Facebook sometimes does that with recent conversations, maybe delete all apps and see what one it is?

Welcome to the forums. That's the 'swipe' feature included in apps like ES File Explorer, some antivirus, photo and video editors, apps by Cheetah Mobile, GO out DU, etc. There's an easy way to identify which app is the culprit. Enable the developer options and check the running services when that menu is opened. The culprit should be there.

Hey Thanks for the quick reply
The thing is I don't have any aps like that at all and it all started after I updated my note 9. So I'm going to try enabling Developer option. How do I go about that.

Tap 7-10 times the build number in settings - about phone. Take a screenshot of the running services screen and post it here.Hey Thanks for the quick replyThe thing is I don't have any aps like that at all and it all started after I updated my note 9.

Go to settings - scroll all the way down - system - developer options - running services.
