I recorded a video from the iOS 12 (IPP 10.5, 256 GB wifi+cel):


Did a clean install and installed without restoring anything. Please note the following from this video:

In Productivity there are 5 rows with icons. For example:

1st one has among the apps listed there Status Lite, Skype, Mail, Netflix...
2nd has Safari, Flickr, Moovit, Uber...
3rd has Currency, Skyscanner...
4th has Speedtest, Parcel...

You get the picture.

Here's the thing:

- Let's say I want to open the app Parcel, from the 4th row.

Once I did that and stopped using the app I would return to the 4th row, after I minimize the app with 5 fingers.

The issue here is that this was the way iOS worked before version 12.

Now this is what happens:

- After we leave the app (minimize) we are forced to go back to the 1st row. So we need to swipe between all rows AGAIN to go back to the 4th row and open a specific app, for example, Speedtest.

iOS is forcing us to return to the 1st row. You can cleary see that behavior in my video.

I am sure this is a bug because there's no excuse for such. I remember in iOS 10 that the only way to return to the 1st row was to minimize the Productivity compilation of apps. Now we are back to the 1st row regardless of what we do. This is very bad.
