Bug Description

With the new Unity and the new integrated lenses, when clicking on each lens (apps,files, music), there are no items displayed unless I search. Previously the lens would show the latest items opened or most common apps loaded, but the only way to see content now in each lens is to use the search box.

It just closes due to Bug #824842

I've made a video using 'refine search', which displays latest apps and files.

Which is now fixed for applications and files, but not for music afaict.

A caveat for files, is that it relies on ZG, and initially in a guest session it will always be empty.
