How do you remove apps from the iPad?

How do I delete apps on my iPad Pro when no x’s appear on the screen for removal and there is no option for deleting in the storage menu and the restrictions for removing apps button is missing?

iPad Air 2, iOS 12

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

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