    Beware of this action!! Removing applications will remove any work created by the application.

    Tap the app icon, hold, until it and all icons wiggle. Then press the X border icon of the application
    to delete. You will be asked to confirm the deletion. To stop the other icons from wiggling, press the
    bottom main HOME button.
