To delete a certificate from an iPhone running iOS 16.4, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the "Settings" app on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap on "General."
3. Scroll down and tap on "Profile."
4. You will see a list of installed profiles and certificates. Find the one you want to delete and tap on it.
5. Tap on "Remove Profile" or "Delete Profile."
6. Enter your passcode or provide your Touch or Face ID to confirm the deletion.

After completing these steps, the certificate will be removed from your iPhone. Note that if a corporate or educational institution installed the certificate, it may be re-installed automatically if your iPhone is managed by a mobile device management (MDM) solution.

The Apple built-in certificates are part of iOS, and cannot be deleted.

Thanks for your reply

But I want to delete another certificate that has been trusted for work network... Not the apple certificates

Check:

Settings > General > VPN Device Management

If not present, or not deletable, contact your employer’s IT organization.

If the iPhone is supervised, you will not be able to alter its configuration, except as IT permits.
