You get the pop-up menu, when you long press an icon.


Touch very lightly!

Normally you get at least 3 menu items

  • Edit Home Screen
  • Share App
  • Remove App


If you don't, check your Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes and App Store Purchases >

Deleting Apps: select Allow here.

Note: Content & Privacy Restrictions must be enabled to see/make changes.
