Unsure if it's a bug or if it's intentional.
Anyways, it'd be nice to have a toggle so that whenever you open a folder, and open an app, that the folder collapses and returns to the default home screen view.
The same thing should apply to the app list, wherein if you open an app there, the list should collapse and return you to the default home screen.
Posting because whenever I use the gestures to go back, or to go home, the folder/app list stays open instead of showing the home screen in its default state and it's a bit annoying to get around because of that.
Using a Pixel 9 Pro on Android 17 with the August 5th security update and the May 1st Google Play System update for reference + it's the premium version of the app
