Delete app option is gone

Theres only “remove app from homescreen” option when I press and hold the app in my screen, when I go to app library to delete it only the “share app” option comes up. I checked my screen time, itunes and appstore, deleting apps is allowed also “app clips” are allowed. How do I delete my apps from homescreen now??

If you have Screen Time enabled, go to Settings/Screen Time/Content & Privacy Restrictions/iTunes & App Store Purchases and change Deleting Apps to Allow.


Then try deleting the app again.
