Device Dashboard

[jennyjoan]

There is a little icon on bottom left hand corner on Amazon Fire which I want to remove as I hit it accidently and it leads me to all kinds.

Anybody know how I can get delete it. Thanks

What does the icon look like?

[jennyjoan]

like two spoons in a house, the spoons are alongside inside the house but one is up and the other is down, hope you can understand that LOL

The icon is called a Smart Home Button, and it lets you navigate all over the Fire. I can't find out how to remove it, and I'm guessing that it isn't meant to be removed. That would cause more trouble than it does now. It looks as though you'll just have to be careful, jj, or cover it with a bit of sticky tape.
