Expected Behavior

As far as I am aware, there is no limit to the number of items that can be pinned to the multitask bar / dock

Current Behavior

Currently a maximum of 8 items can be docked. Docking a ninth (regardless of whether it is inside a folder or not) will cause the ENTIRE home screen to reset after a device reboot.

The issue does not occur with 8 items or less. 9+ are required to reproduce the issue.

Screenshot of my home screen, left side only, main page, 8 items:

Screenshot of the same side home screen after rebooting after adding a 9th item

Possible Solution

Pin less than 9 items in the dock

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Pin 8 apps to the dock
  2. Reboot
  3. Notice all good
  4. Pin one more app
  5. Reboot
  6. Notice home screen completely resets

Additional context

Quick note, the screenshot of the pre-issue I provided is with 8 items; rebooting with 8 items in the dock will work as intended.

You will need 9+ to reproduce the issue.

Quick update: I've managed to reproduce the issue in other conditions as well, with the home screen populated with widgets and less than 8 items in the dock... so all of a sudden I'm very confused.

To be clear, I can reliably reproduce the issue as described in the initial issue, however it looks like it can be reproduced in other conditions as well.

New update... it's become quite frustrating to the point of inusability.

I've had the issue occur many more times with very few reliable repeatable steps. I'd dare say it does it whenever it wants now on a reboot.

I determined to reset the app and clear its data. Then, with the trebuchet data freshly cleared, I DID NOT modify the home screen at all and rebooted to see what it would do.

This also caused it to 'reset' in some weird way where most of the apps simply disappeared similar to the screenshot I had pasted earlier.

In short, the built-in trebuchet launcher seems to be quite bugged to the point of inusability.

This issue is fixed in the latest release.
