Q&A for How to Remove Icons from the Android Home Screen

Tap and hold the icon, and drag it towards the top which should say "remove".

You need to press and hold the icon. A bin will appear somewhere on the screen. You will then be able to drag the icon to the bin.

The app drawer is the master folder containing all your apps. You can access it by pressing Apps on a Samsung, for example.

Press and hold the icon you want to delete. Somewhere on your screen there should be a bin that says 'remove' next to it.

If you're running on a normal smartphone, it's likely that all you need to do is hold down the said App button and drag it to, likely at the top, area and let go. It'll still be in your apps list, but will not be on your home page.

Hold down the app icon, move it to the left of the screen until the page moves, and keep doing it until the app is on the page you want.

This probably means there are some missed calls. Open the phone app, then click on "Logs/Missed Calls" and delete any items you don't need.
