    Its a suggested app based on your location or something. Go into the settings -> general -> handoff and suggested apps and turn suggested apps off to remove it.

    Well, I went to settings>general>handoff, but there's only the option to enable/disable "handoff".  disabled it, but no change.  I've noticed that it sometimes goes away, but it just shows back up at the bottom randomly.

    So far I have actually gotten 3 different messages like this when I double-click on the home button. But only sometimes. Guess there could be more also that maybe haven't show up yet. Anyway the ones I have gotten are...

     

    1. 'Arrived at home', (like you, except mine shows a different app than Facebook).

    2. 'Based on your current location' (this associated with a completely different app).

    3. "Headphones" connected (same app as 'Arrived at home').

     

    I had this same thing happen about 8 or 9 months ago after one of the earlier IOS upgrades but was able to fix it by turning off some things in settings. (Unfortunately now I don't remember exactly what). Started happening again though when I installed IOS 10. Now I have gone through Settings and turned off everything I can think of, and, short of letting the battery run down these silly things still show up. (Like I really want my financial calculator app telling me 'Based on your current location'). And when you touch them it opens the stupid program.

     

    No one seems to even know what these things are or what to call them... messages, notification, alerts, badges... what? All I know is they're totally, utterly, useless and I don't want them.

    The issue is the new Today Screen and the Widgets. You need to turn off 'Siri App Suggestions'

    1. Swipe to the right to goto the Today Screen

    2. Scroll to the bottom

    3. Press Edit

    4. Find 'Siri App Suggestions'

    5. Click the delete button

    6. Click Done

     

    Problem solved
