I use a small pick to pull off one side then grab it with needlenose pliers and run around the other side with the pick again
Probably an easier way or a special tool for it

Small flat head, or dental pick as suggested. I slip them up on the connector as I work around.

There is indeed a special tool for removing electrical
clips. Cost is about 8-10 bucks, and well worth it for
working on modern vehicles, especially on FI connectors.

Some of the previous answers were based on earlier injectors.
1) Pull the red slide lock (if still there) up towards the hood. It might break off. Thats ok.. its not really needed.
2) You could push on the button, but with the age it is better to use a small pick. At the very bottom of the plug use a small pick to gently pull the clip up a bit.. like 1/16". While doing that pull the plug away from the injector.

You're the man, thanks!
