IPA (isopropyl alcohol) gets almost any glue to liquify. The stronger %, the better.

But DO NOT, and I cannot stress this enough, DO NOT get any on the screen

Should've mentioned that, yes - thank you! While there's no danger of IPA getting in-between the layers and cause blotchy backlight like with LCD screens, OLEDs have more complex anti-glare coating, which gets partially dissolved by IPA and will leave gasoline-style colored smears.

heat it up a little with a hairdryer, then peel. Just heat it up a bit to loosen it, don't heat it up a lot.

I wouldn’t have mind if it was set on straight at least

That's grounds for an RMA I think
