How to Delete App on iPhone 7
If you’re an iPhone 7 user looking to declutter your device, deleting unnecessary apps is a great place to start. Whether you’ve found a better alternative or simply need more storage space, this guide will walk you through the simple steps to delete apps on your iPhone 7.
Step 1: Open the App Library
The first step in deleting an app on your iPhone 7 is to open the App Library. This feature was introduced in iOS 12 and provides a comprehensive view of all the apps installed on your device. To access the App Library, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to reveal the App Library view.
Step 2: Find the App You Want to Delete
Once you’re in the App Library, you can scroll through your apps or use the search bar at the top to quickly locate the app you want to delete. If you have a lot of apps, it might take a few moments to find the one you’re looking for.
Step 3: Delete the App
Once you’ve found the app you want to delete, tap on it to open its details page. On this page, you’ll see an option to “Delete App.” Tap on this button, and a confirmation message will appear asking if you’re sure you want to delete the app. Confirm by tapping “Delete App” again.
Step 4: Confirm Deletion
After confirming, the app will be removed from your iPhone 7. You’ll see a small animation of the app icon being removed from the screen. The app will no longer appear in your App Library or on your home screen.
Alternative Method: Delete App from Home Screen
If you prefer, you can also delete an app directly from your home screen. To do this, press and hold the app icon until it starts to wiggle. Then, tap the “X” button that appears on the app icon and confirm the deletion.
Additional Tips
– Deleting an app will remove it from your device, but any data associated with that app, such as saved settings or documents, will also be deleted. Make sure you have any important data backed up before deleting an app.
– If you want to remove an app but keep its data, you can move it to the “Offload App” option instead of deleting it. This will free up space on your device while keeping your data intact.
– If you’re having trouble deleting an app, make sure you have the latest version of iOS installed on your iPhone 7.
By following these simple steps, you can easily delete apps on your iPhone 7 and keep your device running smoothly and efficiently.
