How to disable dynamics 365 App tile
Recently we enabled PowerApps and Flow license which also enabled Dynamics 365 App. I heard from the article that by default if we enable PowerApp then dynamics 365 will also be enabled. The only option is to disable PowerApps.
Can someone please let me know if there is any alternative to do this?
That's right, the Dynamics 365 tile comes with enabling PowerApps and Flow, the only way to remove the tile is by disabling those services. For more information around this see this post:
GA: Microsoft PowerApps and Flow
In one of the comments, a user asked how to disable the Dynamics 365 tile and this was Microsoft's response:
"That's not possible right now. The goal of the Dynamics 365 icon is to provide a launch point for PowerApps and Flow that might not be found inside an Office 365 container (SharePoint). We got a lot of feedback during the preview that the PowerApps and Flow "apps" were really focused on designers and admins, and didn't provide great signposts for users just trying to launch a prebuilt app. That icon doesnt confer any Dynamics rights (or costs) beyond that specific launch pad."
Thre are several other comments saying the Dynamics 365 tile is adding unnecessary confusion and there should be an option to disable it separately.

Hi Deleted,
You could go to All in the app launcher and then remove it from home by clicking on Unpin from home.
But I don't think that you can really fully remove it.

Thanks. When I verify other thread, it has similar information. I hope Microsoft will soon com up with an alternative to tackle this confusion.
- If you don't want to use PowerApps and Flow, you could remove the access to both Apps from Azure AD
