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.

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Can't Delete App I have tried everything to delete one particular app. iphone 6S plus IOS 15.7.3. The phone says it removed the app, but if you look in the app library, it's still there. I have gone to settings>general>storage but the app is not there. I have tried deleting the app, then restarting the phone, and it shows up again with a funky icon. BTW, the app won't work so I wanted to delete and reinstall it but nothing I've done seems to work! Help!

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