Why does Sound Search Widget Keep Disappearing? Ever since I got the phone and continuing to this day, if I reboot the phone the Google Sound Search widget disappears from my home screen. I reinstall it from the widgets menu, and it's all good--until next time the phone restarts, and then it's deja vu, gone again!
Sometimes I don't notice until I need the widget. That's usually when I'm driving and hear a song I like on the radio. I can't safely reinstall a widget while driving so this is not good.
Is there any logical reason for this? Any way to prevent it?
I'm using a Nokia 7.2 running Android 10. I've had the phone about six months.
Currently the phone has build number 00WW_2_400_SP02 based on the &quot;about device&quot; info in the settings menu.
Other widgets I use do not have this behavior.
I was having the same problem. All you need to do is clear the data of Google play services and redownload it.
