Feedback for v1.12.3

I’m having a few annoyances housing apps in a Work profile managed my Shelter that highlight a few remaining issues with /e/OS 1.12.3’s Advanced Privacy and Bliss Launcher builds:

  • Bliss Launcher does not display the briefcase emblem on launcher icons for apps residing in the Work profile
  • Bliss Launcher is rarely up to date after Shelterized apps freeze and unfreeze. This is will also be true of other setups for hiding/unhiding apps like Hail.
  • Bliss refreshes when an app icon which is no longer startable because it has been frozen is tapped. Or is that a crash?
  • Bliss should allow manual refreshes.
  • Advanced Privacy is clearly creating its database of apps at system startup ONLY, not even after you install an app normally using App Lounge in your normal Personal profile. It takes a reboot for it to notice the new app, during which time I have no idea what it’s doing or how many tracker pings it’s sending.
  • Advanced Privacy should notice new apps as soon as they are installed.
  • Advanced Privacy should have a manual rebuild button feature for its entire database.
  • Advanced Privacy is installed into new Work profiles (not sure if shelter’s doing that or Android), but it is still pretty unhelpful there.

See the linked reply for details of this from a Shelter user perspective. I think the points above are valid when any manager of a Work (sometimes called “Pro-”) profile is installed. Some of the points are valid whether you have Work profiles or not (AP not noticing new apps, BL same, and also using different iconography to the rest of the OS)
