Removing customized icons from home screen on iOS 14

I was using the new update to create the custom apps on my home screen, but now I don’t like the outcome but I don’t know how to remove the icons from my screen. I tried to delete the shortcut, but it did not remove the icon from my home screen. Does anyone know how to fix this?
