App keeps reappearing after being deleted on my IPad IOS 14.3

I am trying to delete an app but every time I restart the phone it keeps coming back. If i click on it, nothing happens. If I open the app store, it shows that the app is installed. This is happening with Disney+, Google Docs, Sheets and Slides.


How can I completely remove this and reinstall apps.

iPad Pro, 14

Hello Raju_P,


Thanks for asking the Apple Support Communities for help with deleting apps.


Please verify you are deleting as per this help article: Delete apps from iPad - Apple Support


If you still have issues, do you have Screen Time is enabled? Specifically check if the option in Settings > Screen Time > Content > Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps is set to "Don’t Allow": Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


They may also be reappearing if you have automatic downloads enabled and are downloading them on another device signed in with the same Apple ID: Manage App Store purchases, subscriptions, settings, and restrictions on iPad - Apple Support


"Automatically download apps purchased on your other Apple devices: Below Automatic Downloads, turn on Apps."


Thanks and have a wonderful day.
