Ask HN: Anyone else suddenly have Brawls Stars on their iPhone?

I was just looking on my homescreen and suddenly have Brawl Stars installed on my iPhone. I have never installed this app and it seems to have been installed automatically.

I'm thinking somebody got busted with grindr/tindr/whatevr on their phone and is now seeding "random app install" stories throughout the web to explain it away.
