App delete

I recently added the gas app. I quickly realized that I was not a fan of the app and attempted to delete it. I was able to remove it from my Home Screen but I can’t delete it from the Home Screen or the App Library. I have no idea why this is because I still have the ability to delete other apps. All help would but appreciated.

Hello hawkin16,


If you're having an issue deleting an app from your iPhone, you can try deleting it directly from Settings > General > iPhone Storage. Tap the app from that screen, then tap 'Delete App'.


Also, you'll want to be sure you try these steps:


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.
An iPhone screen showing an app with the Remove icon in the upper-left corner of the app. There's also an Add button in the top left corner of the screen and a Done button in the top right corner of the screen.

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