Troubleshooting iPhone App Deletion:
A. What App? Builtin apps cannot be deleted.
B. Go here: Remove apps from iPhone - Apple Support
Read through this Apple Support document to see if it clarifies things a bit:
Remove apps from iPhone - Apple Support
So what happens when you press and hold on one to attempt to delete it?
There should be a red "Remove (-)" option in the menu, press that, and then a red "Delete" option should be offered. Pressing on the Delete option, should entirely remove the app from the device.
Thanks. The setting is set to Allow yet apps still cannot be deleted unfortunately.
Also, I'm not trying to delete in-build Apple apps, just normal non-Apple apps downloaded from the app store.
