[Newbie] Help removing extra Waydroid icons
-
Hello,
A week ago I decided to try UT on a Pixel 3A XL, and things have been going really well with it. I decided to install Waydroid on it for android emulation support, but it added a ton of shortcuts to my menu screen that I dont want on my "All apps" screen. Is there anyway I can hide icons that I dont want to see from the menu?
Thanks.

@blank Hi, yes you can hide these icons. Did you install Waydroid using Waydroid helper app from OpenStore? If yes, then there is an option Show/Hide apps to remove apps from menu. Just swipe right on the app you want to remove and click on bin icon, then when you drag down in app menu it will refresh itself and the icons should be deleted. If this doesn't work you can delete icons from folder
/home/phablet/.local/share/applications, where you will find entries for apps in the app menu. Delete corresponding file from here, but be careful what you delete as here are also system apps entries for the app menu. (Sometimes it is harder to find the right file as they have longer names then it is showing in the app menu) -
@jakub Thanks! that did it, the kill icon is useful as it keeps crashing easily.
