Delete app from ios 7

Help! I downloaded the new ios7 and I can't delete any apps now.

Attempt to delete the app as indicated above: hold down one app icon, icons will start to wiggle, X's appear in the upper-corner of some apps. click the X of the app you want to delete, select 'Delete' in the message that appears.
It will look like nothing has happened. Now go to App Store and try to redownload the same app. There it may say 'Open' Instead of 'Install', select what ever is there. A fresh copy of the app will be loaded again on you iphone and the icon will become clear (not black or dark). Now repeat the first steps to delete an app (i.e. make the x's show, click the x of the app you want to delete) it will be deleted/removed completely).
This worked on my iphone, hope it will work with you too.

  • I am having trouble deleting apps from iOS 6.01

    I have downloaded a few apps only to decide they're rubbish and want to delete them. This problem occurs on both my iPad3 as well as my iPhone 4S.
    When I tap and hold the app to get it to jiggle, I then tap the 'x' to delete and iOS locks up. It won't delete the app, and I cannot go hold the home button to stop the process. The only way I can resume using my iPhone or iPad is to reset holding the home and sleep buttons.
    I had this problem when trying to download Keynote, Pages, and Numbers the other day, and the only way I could delete these 3 apps to get them re-installed was to plug the devices into my MacBook and delete apps on iTunes and sync them.
    It seems since 6.01 iOS update I've had issues with some apps not loading and not being able to delete apps.
    Anyone else had issues too?

    Yeah, I know all about the un deleatable apps. The apps I'm talking about are 3rd party apps, say for public transport in Melbourne Australia, or my earlier in the week drama Keynote, Numbers, and Pages- a problem still not resolved despite emailing Apple the crash reports.
    I'm not a massive app downloader, I have less than 100. However, this problem is applicable to deleting any 3rd party app, despite restoring iOS6.
    While I am not expecting to receive a solution my original post was more about anyone else having a similar problem with iOS6.0.1 since I'm not convinced it's unique to my iPhone since the same issue occurs with my iPad.
    The next option is the bin. I'm done with Apple.

    How do I delete apps in iOS 7 from my iPhone?

    Same way as you always have done -- press and hold 'till they wiggle, then tap the [x] in the corner of the one you want to delete.  Or, change your sync settings via iTunes to not sync apps you don't want/need.
    Note that you cannot eliminate built-in apps like Weather, Stocks, etc.

Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'.
    You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased links for redownloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - with iOS 7, after hiding apps on my computer's iTunes I've been needing to log out of my account on my iPad and then log back for them to be hidden from the Purchased tab in the App Store app.
    If you need to permanently delete data from iPhone, My recommendation is iPhone Data Eraser, which can erase all data including contacts, messages, call history, apps, system setting, photo, video, keyboard cache, safari bookmark. Indeed, iPhone Data Eraser worth trusting and it makes the work more effective. What you need is a windows computer. One single click and data deletion finish. In addition, the program also works well with iPad and iPod Touch.

  • Delete Apps from MacBook but not from iPhone

    How can I delete Apps from iTunes but not from iPhone 3GS when I Sync them? The moment I delete the Apps from iTunes and then sync iPhone, iPhone deletes them as well.
    Please assist.

    If you intend to ever sync your phone with your Macbook then you can't delete the app from your Macbook, otherwise the apps will also delete from your iPhone (as you've discovered).

    You cannot.
    The entire point of this is that you can redownload any and all of your past purchases.

    They are not taking up storage space.  Apple knows you installed them at one time (="purchased", whether you paid money or not), and merely keeps a list so that if you wish to reinstall any of them on this or a future device, you can.  This is useful if maybe you deleted them due to space constraints, and now have a device with more memory and wish to reinstall.
    It's also useful for taking a trip down Memory Lane looking at all the useless apps you installed once then immediately deleted once you realized they were total garbage ...

  • TS4009 How do I delete apps from iCloud?

    How do I delete apps from iCloud?

    You can't at this time. Apple FAILED to permit iCloud user with  ability to delete programs that you deleted from your iPad/iPhone  devices.  As great iCloud is just know that if you download an app and don't like it you stuck with it in the cloud dispute you deleting it from your device.
    APPLE, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX THIS? At least make it a belated Christmas gift to you fellow Apple clients. PLEEEEEEASSSSSSE! Thank you!

  • I am trying to delete apps from my Ipad. I have tried to hold the app until the cross appears but a cross is not appearing. Do I need to delete them in Itunes first and if so how

    I am trying to delete apps from my Ipad. I have tried to hold the app down until the cross appears but the cross does not appear. Do I have to delete the app in I tunes first and if so how do I do that

    deleteing apps for your ipad is disabled. If you are the owner of it go to Settings>general>restrictions and then turn deletieing apps back on.
    If you have a jailbroken iPad that will proberly not work.

  • How can i delete apps for IOS 7.0.6 when i press the home key the "X" key doesnt appear

    how can i delete apps for IOS 7.0.6 when i press the home key the "X" key doesnt appear?

    Hi-
    This worked!. After updating to 7.0.6 a few days ago I was unable to delete apps. Called Apple support for help without success. I have NEVER entered a passcode to get in to restrictions so I know I didn't make this change (so I'm assuming that 7.0.6 did it for me). Apple wanted me to restore my iphone but thought I'd do more research first. Your advice solved the problem. THANKS!
