This is a known +Android bug affecting all 3rd party launchers +([issuetracker.google.com/issues/353538494](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/353538494)). +It occurs when another app (e.g. Assistant, Tasker, or an incoming call) +controls the display while the screen is off, causing Android to skip the +initial draw of the launcher's window on unlock. + +Pie Launcher works around this by forcing a redraw when the window regains +focus. If this doesn't help on your device, you can enable **Force relaunch** +in the settings, which fully recreates the home screen on each restart. + ### Home returns to the default launcher Please set Pie Launcher as your default home screen launcher.
