So here's a thing some developers don't think about; I don't display the names of apps on my phone, just the icon. Occasionally with a new app, usually FOSS, I forget the name and I can't find it anywhere. Not when I open the app, or even dig through the menus and look for an "about".
I literally had to turn on the labels again to find out the name of this app.
