How to Delete Apps from iPhone 7
Are you looking to declutter your iPhone 7 and free up some storage space? Deleting unnecessary apps is a great way to do so. Whether you’ve changed your interests or simply want to optimize your device, here’s a step-by-step guide on how to delete apps from your iPhone 7.
Step 1: Open the App Library
First, you need to access the App Library. To do this, swipe up from the bottom of the screen on your iPhone 7. If you have a Home button, you’ll see a new page with all your apps. If you have an iPhone without a Home button, swipe up from the bottom-left corner of the screen and you’ll find the App Library.
Step 2: Find the App You Want to Delete
Once you’re in the App Library, scroll through the list of apps or use the search bar at the top to find the app you want to delete. The App Library displays all your apps in a grid format, making it easy to locate the one you’re looking for.
Step 3: Delete the App
To delete an app, tap and hold the app icon until it starts to jiggle. You’ll notice that all the app icons will start to shake, and a small “X” will appear on each app icon. Tap the “X” on the app you want to delete, and then confirm the deletion when prompted.
Step 4: Remove Apps from the Home Screen
If you prefer to delete apps directly from the Home Screen, you can do so by following these steps:
1. Press and hold the app icon you want to delete until it starts to jiggle.
2. Drag the app icon to the top of the screen or to another app icon, which will create a delete animation.
3. Once the delete animation is complete, the app will be removed from your Home Screen.
Step 5: Empty the Recently Deleted Folder
After deleting an app, it will be moved to the Recently Deleted folder, where it will stay for 30 days before being permanently deleted. If you want to free up space immediately, you can manually delete apps from the Recently Deleted folder:
1. Go to the App Library.
2. Tap on the “Recently Deleted” folder at the bottom of the screen.
3. Select the apps you want to delete by tapping the “X” icon on each app.
4. Tap “Delete” to confirm the deletion.
And that’s it! You’ve successfully deleted apps from your iPhone 7. By following these simple steps, you can keep your device organized and free up valuable storage space.
