Can’t delete apps iPhone X

Hello,


Recently set up iPhone X restoring apps from iPhone 6s iCloud backup.


I can’t delete any apps.


Deleting apps in enabled in Screen Time settings.


What might I be doing wrong?


Thanks in advance 😀

First disable the Screen Time Restrictions, if any.


There are six possibilities

  1. Delete an offloaded App
  2. Delete an App from the Home Screen
  3. Remove an App from the App Screen - Will be placed in the App Library
  4. Delete an App from the App Library
  5. Delete an inbuilt App - Not feasible
  6. Delete an inbuilt App - You do not get any options either (e.g. Magnifier)
