Touch and hold the app in the App Library and then tap Delete app.


Note that some built-in Apple apps cannot be deleted.

 

If the delete app option is not displayed, there may be a restriction set on deleting apps. On an iPhone or iPad, go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps.
