The instruction to uninstall apps only shows edit Home Screen and share app options. I need to uninstall a number of apps how can I do that?

The instructions to uninstall apps from iPad does not work on my iPad Air. When the icons jiggle and I touch the app, it only shows either share app or edit Home Screen no option to delete/uninstall app. What should I do?

iPad Air 3, iPadOS 14

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
