Can’t delete app

Hello, I am faced with the problem that I cannot delete the application due to the absence of the delete button (there is only delete from the desktop). I tried to turn on and off the "uninstall applications" option in the screen time section and then restart the device. It didn't help. The iOS version is 18.1.

iPhone 15, iOS 18

  • The Delete app setting in Screen Time must be on. Not sure if you got it backwards when you set you turned it on and off.
  • Is your phone managed by an Organizer of a family plan?
  • You can also try shutting off Content & Privacy completely at Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy.
  • Is the app an Apple app or third party app?
