  1. This doesn’t work anymore. I have Android 8.1 on 4/21/2019 and I don’t even have that “Home Settings” option in Step 2. I can find no way to turn this annoying feature off. Do you have an update? Thanks.

  2. I have the same annoying news feed on the left side of my new 2019 Google Pixel 3aXL phone 7/21/2019. Is there any updates or fixes to remove these annoying Google news feeds?

  3. Thank you very much, it worked. I admit I’m old, not tech savvy and these are our 1st smartphones so just learning them.
