Tab 4 VERSION 5.1.1

I have 4 empty home screen pages. Previously I could pinch the page and select Remove. Now when I press Remove noting happens. Any suggestions?

Welcome to Android Central! I moved this from the Galaxy S4 forum (for the phone) to the Galaxy Tab4 forum.

Are you using the stock TouchWiz launcher, or a 3rd party one (like Nova Launcher)?

Are you saying that you used to be able to remove homescreens such that you had fewer than 5? I recall some prior versions of the stock Android launcher had a minimum of 5 homescreens -- my old 2013 Nexus 7 running Marshmallow is like that.

Sometimes a simple reboot can fix glitches like that .
