Successfully Deleting an App:


A. Builtin Apps:

Note that builtin apps cannot be deleted. So, which apps are you trying to delete?


B. Try Disabling Screentime:

  • Go Here: Use Screen Time on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
  • As it Reads: "To change or turn off the passcode on your child's device, go to Settings > Screen Time and tap your child's name. Then tap Change Screen Time Passcode or Turn Off Screen Time Passcode, and authenticate the change with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode."
