Deleting Apps on iPhone 12

I am not getting a “DELETE” option when trying to delete apps. They do move to the library but then after holding the app down I only get: 1. Paste from Clipboard 2. Add to Home Screen or 3. Share App


I want to DELETE.


Thank you.

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 14

How to delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


you can delete from the App Library by locating the app and tap/hold, select Delete App


or you can go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage > [app name] > Delete


If you still are unable to delete, check:

Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps

make sure that's set to 'Allow'
