After iPadOS 17.2 update on my 10th gen iPad the apps are not uninstalling

I have the 17.2 update on the 10th gen iPad, and for some reason when I hold down an app, I can’t uninstall anything. Is there a bug, or was the way to uninstall apps changed? What is happening?

Start here:

Delete apps on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support


Assuming that your iPad is not centrally managed by an Educational Establishment or Business (as the device may be remotely managed) - if you are experiencing difficulties with adding, updating or removing Apps from your iPad, you’ll need to check your ScreenTime restrictions:


  • Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Adding Apps - set to Allow
  • Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps - set to Allow
  • Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > In-app Purchases - set to Allow
