My phone has this since yesterday as well. Unable to delete or find it in the apps section

It sounds like a piggy back app. Since it's not a true app I'm not sure if pressing and holding the icon will give you any information like pressing and holding an app icon on your home screen. I've seen some parts from last year that say it's a native app and can't be removed but here's a post from Android Central about it...
