I have tried to uninstall and redownload an app but there is no possible way to completley uninstall an app.

I need to uninstall and app and try to redownload as it keeps crashing. For some reason I don't have that option. I think i should have that option after all its my phone.

Hello dlynne97,


To delete apps, follow the steps from this article: Delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

2. Tap Remove App Remove App icon.

3. Tap Delete App, then tap Delete to confirm.
Keep in mind that some built-in Apple apps can't be deleted from your device, so you might not see the option to delete an app. Here’s a list of built-in Apple apps you can delete from your device. If you can't delete an app that's not made by Apple, disable parental controls, then try deleting the app again.
If you touch and hold an app from the Home Screen and the apps start to jiggle: 
1. Tap the Remove icon  in the upper-left corner of the app.

2. Tap Delete App, then tap Delete to confirm.
3. Tap Done.

Once you've deleted the app, you can follow the steps in this article to download your past purchases again: Redownload apps and games from Apple
