It is confusing that there is no way to do this.
It's also potentially a mild security issue if people can't remove old devices - they could change the IP to something invalid but this is not ideal

You mean the entries on the "Custom device list" page? I can delete those just fine. Did you try swiping right to left on the entry?
Comment 3 Richard J. Acton 2025-12-13 06:32:47 UTC
Huh - yep swiping does it, Thanks. That would not have occurred to me to try - I've never liked swiping things as a mode of interaction. There was no visible delete button. I tried long press and nothing happened. I searched for it and found this bug report and assumed there was not a way of doing this - apparently so did the person who originally opened this report, or it was implemented in between. This can probably be closed now.
