Cannot find how to stop app deletion with ios27

To stop manual app deletion or automatic offloading on your iPhone, use Screen Time restrictions or turn off Offload Unused Apps.

Method 1: Block Manual App Deletion (Screen Time)

To prevent people (or accidental touches) from deleting apps from your home screen: 

1. Open Settings on your iPhone.
2. Tap Screen Time. (Turn it on and follow the setup prompts if you haven't used it before).
3. Tap Lock Screen Time Settings or set a Screen Time Passcode different from your main device passcode.
4. Tap Content & Privacy Restrictions and toggle the switch to On.
5. Tap iTunes & App Store Purchases.
6. Tap Deleting Apps and select Don't Allow.

Method 2: Stop Automatic App Removal ("Offload Unused Apps")

If your iPhone is automatically removing unused apps to save storage space:

1. Open Settings.
2. Tap Apps, then select App Store.
3. Scroll down and toggle off Offload Unused Apps. (Note: If the toggle is missing here, pull down on the main Settings page to use the search bar, type unused, and open the setting directly).

You’ve changed the subject completely. So what is your actual issue? Have you followed the instructions given? If not why not? Have you simply restarted your iPhone to see if things clear up.

Restart your iPhone - Apple Support

If that doesn’t fix things then make an appointment at an Apple Store or authorized Apple Service provider.

Thank you for your time, yes the issue arose because of family sharing, turned it off and now all back to normal

Cannot see Itunes and App store

purchases heading anymore. The heading was there before downloading ios 27

That is a separate issue that I am not able to duplicate.

If you are using Family Sharing on your iPhones though.....(I am not)......those settings can conflict with Content and Privacy Restrictions, so you may need to check the Family Sharing settings again, or worst case delete them and then set them up again.

Perhaps another user who has seen the actual issue that you are reporting can help.

Thanks . It is the same issue. What i am try to say is I follow your instructions right up

to step five “ tap on itunes and app purchases” that step is no longer on my phone to tap therefore cannot perform steps 5, 6 & 7

Cannot see Itunes and App store

purchases heading anymore. The heading was there before downloading ios 27

Good news. Glad that you checked the settings for Family Sharing.
