The tool and suction does not work for me. The adhesive is too strong.

It’s so easy to crack the screen here. I recommend using heat to soften the bond and avoid cracking the screen. Ideally a heating pad ($$$), but a heat gun or hair dryer also does the trick. I’ve seen a temperature range of 80-90 C (matching specs from a heating pad). I heated a pizza stone to temperature to make a homemade heating pad. That worked to soften the adhesive here.
