No delete icon to remove a homescreen

[Shass28]

I have never had this problem before with any Samsung device I have owned. There is no delete icon to remove a homescreen. I fobger pinch to access hone screen setting, usually you then hold the page you want removed and there is a bin icon to drag page to remove or there is simply a bin to remove the page, i have neither. 

I have the A55 model and recent software updates. I am unable to remove or delete any extra pages , the delete/bin icon is non-existent... is anyone else having this problem?

@Shass28: If you have more than one Home screen, then it should be possible to delete any additional pages by pinching inwards on the Home screen (or pressing an holding on an empty area of the Home screen), and tapping the dustbin symbol that appears at the top of the preview window.

Hi there, you can long press on homescreen and on top there's should be icon like this so you can remove pages you don't want

Hey there and welcome to the Samsung UK and EU Community Forum

Please press down on the screen you wish to delete. The home screen page will shrink and go a shade of pale grey.

At the top of the feed m greyed home screen is the delete icon. Press it

Exactly..... that's what I'm saying, there is no bin icon, so I am confused. Seems to be a software problem.

Have you tried to long press on homescreen then again long press on the screen you want to delete and see if delete/remove button appears or it might let you drag to the bin when long pressed?

Yep done all the obvious ways and it's just no way to do it. I have now contacted Samsung as it must be a software fault.

Did you lock your homescreen??

UPDATE: So I was on the phone with Samsung for over an hour for them to try and fix the issue. I had to download an app called Smart Tutor to allow Samsung to remote access my device. They could not fix the issue. Changed themes back to default, checked if home screen lock was on.... all of the obvious checks.
Last resort was to put phone into safe mode and that fixed the issue. The bin icon finally appeared and I was able to remove the extra screens. Weird one!
