App showing in screen time that I don’t have installed

Screen time is recording an app called “Microsoft Start” as being used. I’ve never installed this app or heard of it. I checked all my other devices and none of them have it either. It’s showing as being used on my iPhone.

iPhone is a 12, and is running OS 15.4.1

Screen time showing for app not installed on my iPhone. When I go to screen time on my iPhone, I see an app called Agar.io which is a game by MiniClip. It is not installed and never has been on my phone but I am seeing daily usage. I do not have any other devices, but I do have a different game installed from the same publisher, but the screen time I see for Agar.io does not match the screen time for the other game. For example when I wake up there will already be screen time even though I am just picking up my phone for the first time that day.
