How do I go about deleting apps/links? They’re not in my App Store so they’re possibly links that I’ve added and don’t remember. I can’t delete them from my Home Screen as there’s no X to select and I’ve tried “Settings > Screen Time > Content and Privacy Restrictions > iTunes and App Store purchases > Allow” but that doesn’t work.
iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15
Hi K_j_w,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you need some help removing those shortcuts. We're happy to help. See if this works:

Cheers!
Hi! Sorry it’s not quite that. I’m actually trying to delete some apps that have appeared on my phone. They appeared when I downloaded other apps. They don’t show an ‘x’ to delete them so I have no way of removing them from my phone.
You haven't stated what these other apps are so I can't comment on that. Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management and see if you are showing a configuration profile.
They appeared when you downloaded other Apps from the Apple Store or when you side loaded other apps? And is your iPhone jailbroken?
When I downloaded other apps (not sure what side loaded is.) My iPhone isn’t jailbroken. My phone does keep trying to redownload the apps that I presume these ones are linked to?
Hi! That worked, I just had to delete a management profile. Thank you so much!
How do I delete these apps?
