Every time I open my Smartthings App, the order of which I had the items before are no longer. The smartthings home monitor, SmartThings cooking, and homecare wizard are on top. I move them down and back they come once I open the app?

Also, it moves things around all the time? Does anybody have this happen??

It happens to me every-time I open and close the program. It is like there is no memory on the app.
