Please check: Settings - Screen Time - Content & Privacy Restrictions - iTunes & App Store Purchases - Deleting Apps = Allow.

If you click on the red ‘Delete App’ does anything happen? Or is there no Delete app option at all?

Is the phone running the latest OS?

Do you have a USB drive connected?

Do you have any files listed under the app?

You may have to contact the developer to ask if uninstall is possible.
