Deleting bookmarks from home screen

I accidentally added a bookmark from safari to my Home Screen and I cannot figure out how to delete it. When I hold down my apps, a red “x” does not come up as an option to delete. I’ve tried resetting my phone, deleting the bookmarks from safari, and nothing has worked. Any suggestions??

Hello ellarileyyyyy,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!


We understand from your post that you are unable to delete a bookmark that you saved to your Home Screen as there is no delete badge to tap when you edit the Home Screen. What you are describing sounds like some restrictions may be enabled. If so, disable the restrictions and see if you can then delete the bookmark from the Home Screen.
