After an hour of searching I was able to find a way to remove Pocket from the main screen but still having problems removing it on my Android phone. I went back to Chrome because of this and will check with you periodically to see if you can be honest with your users and make simpler to remove. I'm sorry you guys sold out. We used to trust you.

Do you mean from the "TOP SITES" panel on the Android home screen?

This is where you can choose what appears on TOP SITES (or hide it completely):

menu > Settings > General > Home > Top Sites

Then slide the switch for "Recommended by Pocket" from on to off.

Or if you don't enjoy using anything on TOP SITES, you can turn it off by tapping "Hide".

Does that work on yours?

By the way, I don't know why you think Mozilla "sold out." Pocket is part of Mozilla now.
