I am having a problem removing tape residue from a flat white painted wall (drywall). I have tried warm water and soap, but am afraid to damage the paint by trying a marketed product.

Try Goo Gone in an inconspicuous area. I think you'll be pleased with the results.
I was searching around for something to use.Tried sugar soap which did not work. A can of flyspray was handy and bingo the tape residue came off with no damage to paint.
Mortein fast knockdown active constituent 2.41g /kg Bioallethrin. Tape residue was about a month old.
Have you tried picking up the adhesive using more of the same tape?
I also found this article "25 Helpful Items To Remove Sticky Adhesive Goo" here: tipnut.com/
A few of the tips look promising. I think I would try
10. Baking Soda & Water Paste
16. Art gum Erasers (Not a pink pencil eraser! Look in an art supply store or perhaps even a scrap booking store)
24. basically, heat with a hairdryer to soften and wipe off with a damp cloth. Good luck!
wd40, olive oil or baby oil works like a charm.
I found these left a stain on my drywall from the oil base. I wouldn't use these....
Try using Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, slightly dampened. They work well on most surfaces! Good luck.
Have you tried using a steamer on it? Or maybe even a hair dryer.
Now don't go using Goo-gone, Goof-off, Baby oli or WD 40. You will end up haveing to wonder how to get the oil stain off next.
I have used mineral spirits. May be pricey, don't remember, but did the job with no elbow grease and when nothing else that I tried worked. I now renamed this product, "miracle spirits".
