Kodi 17 RC2 & Fire OS 5.2.4.0 Shortcut

Having an issue loading a shortcut for Kodi onto the new Fire OS. Version 5.2.4.0 has gotten rid of the recent applications option by double tapping the home button on the remote. Now you must long press the home button and then you will be taken to “Your Apps & Games” section

Kodi is supposed to now show up in the “Your Apps & Games” section of the new Fire OS and then you can move it to the top of the apps.. but I believe there is an issue..Kodi 17 shortcut does not show up…meaning the only way to open it is to go into Fire OS settings, manage applications and run it for there.

If you know any other methods please post up as I am sure others are encountering this same issue. Thanks
