Hi @Camsy and may I extend a Warm Welcome to the Samsung Community Forum Section for Uk and Eu Members 😀 

Lefun health going from a Google Search is an app from the Google Playstore. 

It also looks to be available via apk files which I'd advise against from downloading if you have acquired the app this way. 

Have a look in your Settings > Apps > Look for the app > Uninstall that way.

If it isn't there then look in your Myfiles and look in the Installarion Files Section. 

If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask  😎

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.
I'm here to help. " This is the way. "

No not only that app it is only an example all the apps it suppose to have the option when you long press the icon right? Its supposed to have the uninstall, remove from home screen option but for me nothing only that information option. 

I cant find the setting to return that way sample shown in the photo

@Camsy: Please try heading to Settings > Apps > Lefun Health > Check to see if 'Uninstall' is visible at the bottom of the screen. If it is, tap on this option to remove the app from your device.

Hi, I have the same problem. I used to be able to long press and see a menu for remove, uninstall etc. now I only see an info icon for all apps. I want to remove an app from the home screen, not uninstall it. How do I do this without the long press option to remove?

Thanks,

Greg

Hi there, I just downloaded the new 7.0 release myself and there is no option to remove apps from my home screen any more. I long press and the only thing options are info and uninstall. I can't drag the apps either say off the screen nor is there a big red x to drag it to to remove it.

What if you don't want to uninstall the app, but just want to remove it from the home screen? Why is this option no longer available (for any apps on my S21)?
