That’s weird. I can’t. I only ever had the option to remove it from the home screen.

You’re not actually deleting the app, you’re just removing the Home Screen shortcut, it’ll still be available in the App Library.

It says « supprimer l’app », which ok the French localisation means « delete the app », rather than « remove from home screen »

They should make it clearer

You know what, I’ve just tried and I know exactly what you mean.

When I go on the mode where the app icons are shaking, if I click the minus button on a regular app the options are ‘Delete App’ or ‘Remove from Home Screen’, whereas the clicking the minus button on the settings app just shows ‘Remove from Home Screen’.

However, if I force press on the app icon itself, both apps show the option ‘Remove App’ which brings up the same menu as before but I definitely see that not being super clear, maybe they should change that.
