I can't delete apps on my iPad after updating to iPadOS 17

I’m trying to delete an app on my IPad and can’t do it anymore in IPad storage, which had an easy delete this app i but changed in the update. No delete as you can see from the screenshot When I go to the home screen and hold down on the app there is only a remove app no delete app. I tried the remove app and it’s still in my library.

That screen is correct, it is the next screen after you pres Remove App that will give you these options:

  • Delete App
  • Remove from Home Screen
  • Cancel


If you do not have the Delete App option there, then go to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps. Make sure this setting is turned on.
