How to Remove or Delete Apps on Your iPhone

Managing apps on your iPhone is incredibly simple, whether you’re looking to arrange your Home Screen or reclaim some space. The great news? If you decide to revert your choices, you can effortlessly reinstall the apps from the App Store, provided they are still available. Here’s a guide on how to do it:


1.     Remove an App from the Home Screen

To organize your Home Screen without uninstalling an app, you can hide it from view while retaining access through the App Library. Just press and hold the app icon on your Home Screen, and then select "Remove App" from the menu that pops up. After that, choose "Remove from Home Screen" to move the app to the App Library. It will stay installed on your iPhone, but it won't appear on the Home Screen anymore.
 
Method 1:
  • Locate the App: Find the app you want to delete on your Home Screen.
  • Press and Hold: Tap and hold the app icon until a menu appears or the icons start to wiggle.
  • Delete the App:  
  • If a menu appears, tap "Remove App" and then "Delete App".
  • If the icons are wiggling, tap the minus (-) button on the app icon, then confirm by selecting "Delete App".
  • Confirm Deletion: A pop-up will appear asking if you're sure. Tap "Delete" to confirm.

2.     Delete an App from Both the App Library and Home Screen

To completely remove an app and free up storage space, navigate to the App Library or Home Screen, then press and hold the app you wish to uninstall. Choose "Delete App" from the menu that pops up and confirm this action by tapping "Delete" once more. After the app is deleted, it along with all its related data will be fully removed from your device.

Method 2: 
  • Open Settings: Go to the Settings app.
  • Navigate to General: Tap "General", then select "iPhone Storage".
  • Find the App: Scroll down and tap the app you want to delete.
  • Delete the App: Tap "Delete App" and confirm.
Don't worry. You can reinstall any apps you've bought or downloaded at any time through the App Store. Just search for the app and click the download icon to restore it to your device.
By efficiently managing your apps, you can maintain an organized and smooth-running iPhone. Whether you want to tidy up your Home Screen or free up important storage space, these straightforward steps empower you to take complete control of your app collection.
