How to permanently delete apps from my iPhone? I can’t delete any apps from my phone. Yes they are not built in. No I don’t have any screen time restrictions or content restrictions. I can only remove apps from the Home Screen (add them to App Library) but I can’t permanently delete anything even if I go into storage settings and try to delete an app that way. Can’t find any answers on other forums. This phone used to have content restrictions which I suspect is the issue but have since all been removed. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Deleting app I can only delete an app from my screen, but not able to delete the app completely. I already tried going to settings. Then clicked on general, went to iphone storage, clicked on the app I want to delete and it still does not allow me to delete it.

Please check: Settings - Screen Time - Content & Privacy Restrictions - iTunes & App Store Purchases - Deleting Apps = Allow.
