  17. Why does the Story Album icon always look like I have a notification from it. I keep the icon in a subfolder and the subfolder also shows that I have a notification in Story Album so Story Album is obviously communicating to the system that it wants my attention. Why does it do this and how can I clear the notification? S4, Android 5.01
