Can't remove apps from home screen on S24 Ultra One Ui 7

You could try clearing the app cache/storage for One UI Home in Settings>Apps. This is a semi-nuclear option, because you'll have to set up your homescreens all over again -- but if there's some wonky bit of data hanging around in the launcher, this might clear it out.

Same thing, I gave the suggestion earlier on (

Oh whoops!

How about dropping unwanted icons on new home page and then delete that home page along with the icons?

Hmm, kind of like a bootleg Windows recycle bin. I suppose that's a decent workaround if push comes to shove. But I'll stick with Nova while it's still viable until I can fix Home or at least figure out why it's behaving this way.

Hello, just wanted to say that I had the same issue. Decided to give One UI Home a try because of the expanded folder but when I press and hold the folder, I don't get the expanded options. When trying to delete apps from the home screen, no options there too.

Anyway, I figured out that you have to set One UI Home as your Default Home App. Since you have Nova Launcher like me, long press Nova Settings icon, App Info and look for Home screen. Change it to One UI Home. After that, you should get the 'extra' options.

Hope this helps.

It's now working but I tried that before and it didn't work.

I haven't changed anything in a few months so one of the updates must have fixed it but just happy it's working properly with the official UI 8 update due shortly.
