Deleting Apps

Hi! I’m trying to delete an app on my phone, but it doesn’t give me a “delete” option. Just says “remove” app. Is there another way to do this? Or am I missing something? Thank you!

Some built-in Apple apps cannot be deleted. See: Delete built-in Apple apps from the Home screen on your iOS 14 or iPadOS device or Apple Watch - Apple Support

If you do not have a delete option on any apps, you may have a restriction on deleting apps. See: Use parental controls on your child's iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
