How to remove Samsung Pay from your Home Screen
Some Samsung mobile users may notice that Samsung Pay app has taken over the bottom of their home screens. When this happens, Samsung Pay will display a transparent slide-menu on the bottom of the home screen that will open the Samsung Pay app when swiped.
The Samsung Pay swipe-menu can be annoying for many Samsung mobile phone users as it can take up space and get in the way. It also looks out of place to many Samsung mobile users.
