Homescreen bookmarks impossible to remove Hello, I have an iPhone X on iOS 15.6. It appears that two of my Safari bookmarks on the homescreen are impossible to remove. There is simply not the usual option to remove them when I maintain my click, as you can see on the picture (don't mind french language). I already looked up on the internet but I found no answer. It is not a problem of Screen Time (I have no restriction activated), and it is not possible to delete the apps via iPhone storage as they are not even in the list. I tried creating new bookmarks for these same websites and it appears I can delete the new ones without any problem. But still not these two. I hope somebody can help me with that.

Delete My Safari Bookmark I have added a bookmark/app from safari using the "Add to home screen." After a while, I don't need it on my iPhone 6s and I want to delete. When I hold down on the app/bookmark, it doesn't show the X to delete it. When I go to safari - bookmarks, it doesn't show the app/bookmark I want to delete. It is now stuck on my screen. By the way, it is updated to IOS 14.

I removed my first reply because I realized that you are talking about deleting bookmarks for web pages, not deleting apps. This is what you should see when you tap and hold down on the web shortcut.

What do you see when you hold down on the shortcut?

Thank you. It worked. I had no idea screen time would do that
