Many never-installed apps listed in 'Installed Apps'

  • Device OS and version: Android Marshmallow (6.0.1)
  • Device model/manufacturer: Motorola Moto G4 Play XT1607 (stock, retail unlocked, and never-rooted)
  • F-Droid version (in the About screen): 1.2.2 (but has been occurring through several previous updates)
  • F-Droid privileged extension version (if installed): n/a

What did you do?

I updated from F-Droid 1.2.1 to 1.2.2. Afterwards, I went to settings and tapped 'Manage Installed Apps'. The resulting list was extremely long, with many never-installed apps listed.

In the past, after an update, I will have to completely clear app data and start again for the installed apps to show properly. In this particular instance, I've not done so, so logs can be created and sent if necessary.

What did you expect to see?

Blokada, F-Droid, Firefox Klar, and that UnifiedNlp one that seems to always show in the list on all my devices (I'm guessing it's just preinstalled in the factory ROM, since I never installed or updated that one).

What did you see instead?

A huge list of apps, many of which I've never heard of and clearly never installed.
