What is tous Android version ?

As I discussed in #1047, the "show app icon" setting is removed for Android 11+.

See commit b2ae020 and #256.

In my case I can hide Heliboard with a custom launcher (I use Nova launcher).

I use android 13 before that I used to use openboard when I disable the show app icon when go to the launcher yes it shows but when you go to settings>apps>systemlaunche>force stop the icon dessapear their are a lot of reason I just cant use custom launcher like losing gesture animations laggyness espically on unrootable phones

You can't remove it because new Android version don't let you do that. Maybe it's possible to circumvent by targeting older API versions (since hiding apparently works for OpenBoard), but I'm not going to do that.
