App alignment issue home screen on S23 Ultra. App icons bleed over another app page to left.

[Alan Mitchell]

Hi all,

Please can anyone help me with this?

I've attached a couple of pics to show what I mean. Its driving me nuts! The page with all of the icons is my home screen and the icons on the left dont align correctly and when I swipe to the left (my widget screen) you can see they bleed over.
This doesnt happen all the time but is regular. About 20 times a day. There doesnt seem to be anything specific that sets it off. 

This is a brand new hand set after EE replacing this because the first one did this and they didnt know what it was. Only had that one a week too...I did a factory reset on it and it solved nothing. Had the new handset 1 day and its happend again?????

Thanks in advance for any help. I cannot find anything on this at all and not sure what to do.
Alan

Have you tried to see if a different default launcher gives you the same problem? Can you give Nova Launcher a try and see if that allows you to experience the phone how you should.

I've not tried that, no. Will give it a go. From the looks of it, it looks like I can't import my layout as is....and would need to completely build it from scratch. Going to do this for a few apps where the issues are and see what happens but wanted to confirm that is the case before I plough in and miss something!!! I've not used anything like that before. Thanks for the tip, will try it

I've got this exact same issue ever since I did the latest software update. Hope it's just a bug issue that will get fixed in subsequent updates but like you driving me mad!

I've started using this Nova Launcher and its been great. I've not had the issue with that, that I was having on the default launcher. It took a bit of time to get my apps how I had them. I just took a screen shot and added them whilst in front of the TV and soon got it looking the same. I actually prefer it now to be honest. You need the Pro version for app notification numbers (to tell you how many messages etc) but when I did that two days ago it was 9p(!) rather than £4 so I've had a result there. 
I had my phone set up the same way now, just using that launcher and its been fine.

Top man. Thanks for that I will give that a go, and its still 9p! Belting 👍🏼
