Hooray! That’s great. Glad you got it working in the end.
Well, that’s the “Bliss” launcher for you. It’s specially made by e and many don’t like it. But it’s just an app, and you can find another launcher and try that. My favourite that I’ve been using for months is Omega launcher. I just posted details for it today in another thread. Other people made their suggestions also. Take a look.
Search the forum for other discussions about launchers and Bliss.
Whenever you try a launcher it always takes a bit of time to set it up and get used to it so patience is the key.
You can go back to Bliss anytime, just go into settings > apps & notifications, find Bliss and set it as your Home app.
Enjoy
