Think I understand. You're trying to delete a widget from the widgets drawer, or whatever it's called. If you swipe left on that, you'll probably see even more widgets.
You can't delete them from there or anywhere else - they're part of the system/app files. Several of the apps I've added have put widgets on the phone, and even though I won't need them, I just have to put up with their existence. In Windows terms, they're protected operating system files.
Little exercise for you. Press and hold a widget. If there's no vibration, then you can enable that if you want to (I have, because I'm not yet being mean with the battery). Apps/Settings/Sound & Notification/Other sounds/Vibrate on touch.
The widgets drawer shrinks when you press and hold, showing some of the home screen.
Drag the widget onto the home screen and release.
Touch and hold, and you can either move it or drag it up to X Remove at the top of the screen.
I found the same as you re the SD card. Everything that comes pre-installed can't be moved. Everything you install can be moved. Even if you 'move' them, some if not all will keep some files back in internal memory.
If I go to Apps/Settings/Storage, it says internal storage is 5.51 GB, with 3.43 GB free. The storage capacity hogs are listed under that in descending order of space taken, albeit it's shown in categories rather than by app/folder. If you've nearly filled the internal storage already, what have you been doing? Taking long videos of Sue without setting the camera's storage to SD card?
Please everyone, and not just Geoff, post any queries on the forum and PM only if it's private - that way we can all learn from someone else's experience.
