App does not get off my phone

I have been deleting an app multiple times, however every time I restart my phone or my phones turn off from dying the app always comes back. I also attempted to delete the app from my iPhone storage, but i can’t delete the app. I have an iPhone 11. Please help. I don’t know what to do, does anyone have any other option?

After deleting the app from the home screen, you can go back to the App Library and delete it from there. If you cannot delete the app from there, then check this. Check Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes and App Store Purchases > make sure Deleting Apps is Allowed.

Also note: Content & Privacy Restrictions must be enabled to see and make changes.
