How do I delete apps on iPhone 7?
If you’ve recently upgraded to an iPhone 7 or are just getting started with this sleek device, you might be wondering how to delete apps that you no longer need. Deleting apps not only frees up storage space but also helps declutter your home screen. In this article, we’ll guide you through the simple steps to delete apps on your iPhone 7.
Step 1: Open the App Library
First, you need to access the App Library. This feature was introduced in iOS 12 and allows you to see all your apps in one place. To open the App Library, swipe up from the bottom of the screen on any home page, or swipe down from the top-right corner of the screen on the first page.
Step 2: Find the App You Want to Delete
Once you’re in the App Library, you’ll see a grid of all your apps. Scroll through the list or use the search bar at the top to find the app you want to delete. If you have a lot of apps, this step might take a bit of time.
Step 3: Delete the App
Once you’ve found the app, tap and hold on its icon until the icons start to jiggle. You’ll see a small “x” appear in the top-left corner of the app’s icon. Tap the “x” to delete the app. A confirmation message will appear asking if you’re sure you want to delete the app. Tap “Delete” to confirm.
Step 4: Delete Apps from the Home Screen
If you prefer to delete apps from the home screen, you can do so by following these steps:
1. Tap and hold on the app’s icon until the icons start to jiggle.
2. Tap the “x” that appears in the top-left corner of the app’s icon.
3. A confirmation message will appear asking if you’re sure you want to delete the app. Tap “Delete” to confirm.
Step 5: Organize Your Apps
After deleting an app, you might want to organize the remaining apps on your iPhone 7. You can do this by tapping and holding on an app’s icon, then dragging it to a new location on the home screen. You can also create folders to group similar apps together.
Deleting apps on your iPhone 7 is a straightforward process that can help you manage your device’s storage and keep your home screen organized. By following these simple steps, you’ll be able to remove unwanted apps in no time.
