Hi! I recently made a bunch of shortcuts for my iPhone 11. I deleted them on the Shortcuts app but they are still active and on my home screen even though they are deleted from the app. I’ve tried restarting my phone and nothing changed. My phone is also up to date with the most recent update. Please help!
iPhone 11, iOS 16
Hi cc0107,
That should definitely be working.
Try also a long press on the icon and look for the red remove button.

Hello cc0107,
You may need to remove the Shortcuts or Siri Suggestions widget from the Home Screen, too. Check to see if this works for you.
1. On your iOS or iPadOS device, touch and hold the widget on the Home Screen.
2. Tap Remove Widget, then tap Remove.

HI cc0107,
When the widgets start to jiggle like this, do you see a remove button ( - ) towards the top left corner of the widget? Tap this to remove the widget, or the plus ( + ) on the top right to add a different widget.
Please reply back if this helps.
Cheers!
Hello Ali_E1! I don’t believe I have any widgets on my home screen other than the shortcuts. When I tap to delete them like I would any other app, (when they jiggle) there’s no delete button if thats what you’re saying. :)
Hi, JJRASC! When the widgets jiggle, there is no remove sign at all, in fact, there’s not any sign.
Shortcuts still active even after I deleted them
