I split off this question in another thread to keep this about f-droid.

I installed more apps on the e-reader and notice they *are* showing up in the app list. For some reason I can't explain, only F-Droid doesn't show up... Even Yalp Store shows up...

Any idea why?

Update: I finally did the inevitable and lost F-Droid from the list of recent apps. It's surprisingly hard to start an app in Android if it doesn't show up in a launcher, let me tell you that. I had to actually transfer the APK of ANOTHER launcher (I picked App Launcher from the great Simple Mobile Tools series and then install THAT and THEN I was able to start F-Droid again. Phew!

(I didn't use RelaunchX because it grabs one of the intents that makes the device prompt for the launcher app every time you go back to the homepage. There's no way to get rid of that dialog, as far as I can tell, which makes the launcher unusable... The Simple App Launcher doesn't have that problem and shows up in the regular App listing...)
