Deleting Apps

I recently updated to iOS 14 and I am using iPhone SE 2020 which I bought 3days ago. Here now I can’t delete any apps or games which I have downloaded. Previously there was an option in setting>general- deleting apps on or off option, I turned it on because I sometimes mistakenly delete apps from the home. And now after the update probably I can’t find this setting any more and thus I went through every possible settings and apps but I can’t find any possible ways to delete apps/games from my iPhone. Please help :)

iPhone SE, iOS 14

If the issue persists and your have Screen Time enabled, check Settings > Screen Time > Content > Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps, and make sure this isn't set to "Don't Allow".
