We have created a weblink for some of our sites. They were pushed out to all devices, but in some instances showed up as 2-3 generic icons. When you force press on them to bring up the options, it does not allow for deletion. We have also set it to uninstall from all Devices, still not able to remove. I've looked over several comments and question in various forums, and answers vary and none of them resolve the issue. I have removed the management profile from the device, and still unable to delete.

    Found a workaround for the issue! Had a couple of Web Links stuck on my home screen for a while now, but finally found a way to remove them. I created a new Home Screen on the iPhone and added the Web Links I wanted gone to it, then I erased the home screen containing them and the system prompted me that it wouldn’t be able to add them to the App Library and hence would delete them. And just like that, they were gone =) hope it helps!

    Have you tried assigning the app under Uninstall and performing a sync on the device(s)?

    I created a case with Microsoft support, and they informed me it's a limitation of Intune. Nothing they can do. They are looking into it.

    I sit as an administrator for +600 iPads, all configured in Intune, and we have the same problem as many other Intune users.

    In my eyes, the "solution" where we should remove the profile, and then roll it back on, is a bad and not possible soultion.

    Dear Microsof, please pay this some attention!
