UNKOWN not UNKNOWN

[Edward Edwin Devasahayam]

Android Assistant is showing this UNKOWN app not UNKNOWN app using battery and tells it is not an installed app. Hence I am unable to get any more information. Screenshot attached. Can anybody help?

Obviously it's a misspelling(Chinglish?). Is this some Chinese phone or tablet you've got there? As to what it actually is, not a clue. Also this "Android Assistant, is it that? https://www.coolmuster.com/android-assistant.html

Once an app is uninstalled the phone no longer has its identity to associate the battery usage to. So any battery previously used by an app that has been uninstalled always shows as an unknown app.

Obviously an app that is not installed cannot use any more power, so this is just historical usage that is shown here (prior to it being uninstalled).

My phone is Xiaomi Redmi Note 5. The Assistant for Android was installed from Play Store. The snapshot is a page shown by the Assistant while tapping the button and not a page from phone settings. I can't understand why it shows battery usage 0.19% when that app is not existing in installed applications. In the phone settings battery usage, no such app is shown. Anyhow thanks to mikedt and Hadron.

Both that phone and app do come from China, and occasionally these things do have misspellings and grammatical errors in them, hence the "UNKOWN".
