Hello Sandra
Yes, this is the expected behavior

Are you sure? I don't think so! It's the first time I observe this behaviour. Is it a beta2 improvement? Anyway I do not appreciate it, because I think that the user has to decide what to add to the launcher.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

that's the new default behavior you can disable that from software center if you don't like. View -> New Applications in Launcher

[Sandra Farnedi (sandra-farnedi-d)]

Ok, thanks! It's important to know that this behaviour can be disabled.
