Removing apps

How do I remove apps from my IPad? I used to just touch and hold the app until an “x” appeared or else a “delete app” message appeared. I no longer receive that, just a “share app” or rearrange Home Screen” message. Thanks

iPad Pro 11-inch Wi-Fi

If you are experiencing difficulties with removing Apps from your iPad, you need to check your ScreenTime restrictions:

Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps - ensure that this permission is set to Allow
