I'm currently running LinageOS 14.1 (Android 7.1), I found a task in Magisk named
com.android.egg
. It's described as being "Android Easter Egg". Researching it, I found out how to [trigger it here](https://www.pocket-lint.com/apps/news/google/138312-how-to-access-android-easter-egg) ,

However, that doesn't work for me. It seems as if on LineageOS the edit option for the drop-down is done by clicking on the pencil at the top. There is no **Edit** text anywhere on the menu. I would still expect that button to work for the purposes of the easter egg?
Does LineageOS disable these Android Easter Eggs? Is it possible to trigger this Easter Egg in LineageOS?
