i removed a folder and all my apps disappeared so i went to re-download them but it just says open . i google sand it said it was in my app library ! i looked up how to move to home screen from library and even how to delete apps from the app library . NOTHING AT ALL was working ! How do i get them back on to my home screen ?
iPhone 7, iOS 14
When I try to remove an app I only get a
(-) sign and not an (x), so it puts it in the app library. My choices are only to put it in the app library or put it back on the home screen.
I have quite a few apps that I want to take completely off my phone, but it won’t let me.
Please help.

To move from the app library to the Home screen just hold the app until it jiggles, then drag it to the Home screen.
If you can’t delete an app go to Settings/Screen Time/Content & Privacy Restrictions/iTunes & App Store Purchases and change Deleting Apps to Allow.
I deleted an app that is still in my "library" when I try and delete the app entirely, it only gives me a "minus" sign and not an "X" so that I can delete it entirely from my phone. It is not an app that came with the phone.

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'
I Did this and it still won’t let me delete it. I can only share
I have tried all 3 of these and nothing is working. When I go to delete the app on my apple library the delete button doesn’t show and when I try to delete it through screen time either.
Just tap and hold the app. Watch the GIF

In case the Scroll Up function on your computer is broken so you can’t read the Apple Recommended post, here is the key part of it:

First, some of the built in apps can’t be deleted. This link has a list of the ones that CAN be deleted→Delete built-in Apple apps on your iOS 12, iOS 13, or iPadOS device or Apple Watch - Apple Support
Next, an app that has a configuration profile requires special handling. See→How to delete an app that has a configuration profile on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Assuming it is an app that can be deleted let’s take it step by step:
The next time you want to delete an app start with step 7.; 1-6 only need to be done once.
I followed all the steps, but still I haven’t been able to delete it, I can only share 🙁
Ive lost my “notes” app. Not on my Home Screen or library. I have no idea how to locate this. Any direction would be so helpful.
I know how to delete the Apps. The problem is my notes have totally disappeared. Home Screen and library. No icon anywhere! I’m hoping someone out there can help!
I did this and it is changed to “allow” but I still do not have the option to delete. My storage is full and I need to delete apps
APPS FROM APP LIBRARY WILL NOT DELETE
