I just check my iPad which is running the current iPadOS 14.3. If I touch and hold an app, I get "Delete App" in the quick actions menu that pops up and also if I tap "Edit Home Screen" in that menu I get an "X" on all apps that can be deleted. Note that it is not possible to delete some built-in apps.


The only other thing I can think of is that if there is a restriction on deleting apps, the above will not be possible. See the deleting apps restriction in the screenshot in Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
