To delete an app on your iPhone, follow these steps:

  1. On the Home Screen, touch and hold the app you want to delete until a menu appears or the apps start to jiggle.
  2. Tap Remove App.
  3. Then tap Delete App.
  4. Confirm by tapping Delete again.

This will completely remove the app from your iPhone

. Alternatively, you can delete apps via the Settings app:

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap General.
  3. Tap iPhone Storage.
  4. Scroll and select the app you want to delete.
  5. Tap Delete App.
  6. Confirm the deletion.

This method also removes the app and its data from your device

. If you only want to remove the app from the Home Screen but keep it in your App Library, choose Remove from Home Screen instead of Delete App in step 3 above

. Note: Deleting an app does not automatically cancel any in-app subscriptions you may have, so be sure to manage those separately if needed

. If you encounter issues deleting apps, it might be due to Screen Time restrictions. You can disable these by going to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions and turning off the restrictions
