How do I minimize Google strip on my home screen

[Android Central Question]

I have a Wiko, phone my # [redacted by Mod], and all I want to do is minimize the Google strip on my home screen. I've been able to do it on all of them on my Samsung smart phones. I can't seem to find a way to do it on this one.

I assume you're talking about the Google search bar, right? The ability to remove that from the homescreen depends on the launcher -- some launchers don't allow you to remove it. Long-press the bar -- if you don't get an option to remove it from the homescreen, then your only option would be to install a 3rd party launcher that does give you that option (like Nova).
