System update fake out?? - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

Is anyone else getting this pop-up notice? When I choose install, it just takes me to the system update page where it then tells me my system is up to date. What gives?

I believe this means your Play Security version is out of date.
Go to Settings > Security > Security Update as well as Google Play system update.

Help Hiding the VPN Icon

In stock Android previous to 5.0 the VPN icon appears as an annoying persistent key in the top left like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After 5.0 they moved it as a system icon to the right and it can be turned off or adjusted.
It looks like this:
It seems like in Touchwiz they never updated this and the key is still on the left. Even if you're using 5.1.1 (I assume 6.0 will be the same.)
---
2 Questions:
1) Without rooting, is there a way to remove or hide that icon?
2) Is there a way to file a bug or ticket with Samsung to let them know to fix this in the new Touchwiz? Or some other way of contacting them?

If you install Accuweather from google store, you can put the weather on lockscreen.

Google App bottom tab buttons disappearing after first launch

Hello,
I've discovered that if I go to the storage options of the Google search application, and clear both the app data, and history and flow data, when launching the app for the first time, I'm getting this new presentation (shown eof October / beg November, as shown here : https://www.androidpolice.com/2017/10/31/google-testing-5-tab-design-google-app/ )
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And when I launch the app again after that, I get the old presentation :
Why ??
What's wrong with my phone ? I've just made a factory reset, everything is clean, so why this behavior ?
It is normal. Just Google's server experiments.
Just for information, the issue was caused by the Nova launcher add-on to have Google search opened on a swipe.

Looks like an icon for a Color Picker. Where is the icon shown?
It is probably related to Pen Up app, which I have deleted...
It's on every app I use and I have to constantly move it around to use all my apps. It's locked in place and I can't get rid of it. It's very annoying.

It didn't start this until I updated to the new UI 4 software
Problem solved. Thank-you for your response. This icon option is in the accessibility button option.
