Just one App icon on home screen has wiggling minus sign

Only one App icon on my home screen has a wiggling minus sign (like when you want to relocate). I've tried turning them all on, then hit "done" and all the wiggling minus signs go away except this ONE... HELP!

iPhone 12, iOS 17

Try a "forced" restart of your device using these instructions: Put it on charge for at least half an hour, then, keeping it plugged in, use these gestures:

In rapid sequence, press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then press and hold the side (power) button. Only when the Apple logo appears (it might take 10-20 seconds), release that button (ignore all other screens that might appear, the one with the "slider" to turn the device off included).


If the issue still persists, contact Apple support directlyu, using this link:--> Contact Apple for support and service
