Thank you, but I do not have the last Arrow with the Delete App?
Please see attached screen shot?
Did that to start, but still listed under General?
Thank you so much!!!!
You are welcome. I have more suggestions if that does not work. did not want to overload you all at once.
Thank you, as that did not work.
Yeah! Thank you so much! Worked like a charm. Appreciate your time.
Have a Great Day,

Actually, you didn’t have to reset all settings. You only had to reset Settings/Screen Time/Content & Privacy Restrictions - iTunes & App Store Purchases - change Deleting Apps to Allow.
And I did so before printing out and saving :-)
Unless you change it to Not Allowed, it will remember the setting and you won’t need to do it again.
No sir, I followed your directions and changed it to "allow".
Thank you so much ~ I appreciate it!
