What is how to uninstall apps on iphone?

There are a few ways to uninstall apps on your iPhone:

  • From the Home Screen: This is the most common method. You can uninstall an app from the Home Screen by:

    1. Touching and holding the app icon you want to remove.
    2. After a moment, a menu will appear.
    3. Choose "Remove App".
    4. You'll then be prompted to either "Delete App" (which removes the app and its data) or "Remove from Home Screen" (which only removes the icon from the Home Screen; the app remains in your App Library). Choose "Delete App" to uninstall it completely.
    5. Confirm the deletion by tapping "Delete".
  • From the App Library: If you've removed an app from your Home Screen but haven't uninstalled it, you can uninstall an app from the App Library.

    1. Swipe left past your last Home Screen to access the App Library.
    2. Find the app you want to delete. You can search for it using the search bar at the top.
    3. Touch and hold the app icon.
    4. Select "Delete App".
    5. Confirm by tapping "Delete".
  • From Settings: You can also uninstall an app from Settings, which can be useful for seeing how much storage an app is using:

    1. Open the Settings app.
    2. Go to "General" > "iPhone Storage".
    3. Wait for the list of apps to populate.
    4. Tap on the app you want to delete.
    5. Tap "Delete App".
    6. Confirm by tapping "Delete App" again.

Important Considerations:

  • Deleting an app also deletes its data. This includes any documents, saved games, or login information stored within the app. Some apps may store data in iCloud, so check if the app has iCloud sync enabled if you want to preserve your data.
  • Removing from Home Screen vs. Deleting: Be careful to choose "Delete App" if you want to completely uninstall the app. "Remove from Home Screen" only removes the icon.
  • Reinstalling: You can always reinstall an app you've deleted from the App Store, but you may have to pay for it again if it was a paid app, unless you're using Family Sharing and someone else in your family purchased it.
