Hi,
I'm not an iPhone user but as a guess, I would clear the app's cache and see if that works. Might need to clear a lot of apps' cache; I notice my Android phone starts acting up when I haven't done that in a while. Another possibility: delete the app and reinstall it? Or install a different calculator app and move that to the home screen? I don't know if there are multiple calculator apps for iPhones like there are for Androids.
Good luck,
~Elizabeth

Hi All... I’m trying to help a friend with an older iPhone. They want to move their Calculator App on to their Home Screen. Everything I've read/watched suggests you just press on Calculator and either choose Move to Home Screen or choose Move To or hold your finger down on the Calculator App and simply drag that icon to the hone screen holding your finger down on Calculator the entire time.
None of that works on his iPhone 10.
Apple Accessibility had no further suggestions.
Anyone recall how they used their iPhone 10 to accomplish this task?
Thank you.
Charles.
