Unable to remove app directly from my iPhone Home Screen

Hi Apple Community,

I'm experiencing two frustrating issues with my iPhone, and I need your help to resolve them:

1. iTunes Does Not Recognize My iPhone

  • My iPhone won't show up in iTunes when I connect it via USB.
  • I've tried the following steps so far:
    • Used a certified Lightning cable and different USB ports.
    • Updated iTunes to the latest version.

Despite these efforts, iTunes still doesn't recognize my iPhone.

2. Unable to Remove App

  • I’ve tried removing the app directly from my home screen and through Settings > iPhone Storage, but it won’t delete.
  • I’ve checked my Screen Time restrictions, and app deletion is allowed.
  • The app persists even after multiple restarts.
