How can I permanently delete apps from iCloud on my child's iPad

Up front, I'd like to say that this question has nothing to do with storage space - rather, it's about deleting apps, for parenting reasons, the iCloud. 
We wish to permanently remove select apps from our child's iPad.  We cant seem to do this - while they are not active on the home screen, by going into itunes or the App Store, they can simply be downloaded again without our knowledge or consent.
Are there any provisions for parental controls over the iCloud?
Thanks.

By going to settings - general - restrictions - parental controls can be setup to limit the age appropriate content including apps. By hiding those apps on your computer you may be able to change their visibility as well, but I haven't had a chance to check it - try it yourself if you want.

    How can I permanently remove apps from my iphone, ipad, ipod operating in the iCloud?

    Apps don't operate in the cloud - they're either downloaded to your device, or they're in your Purchased list. You can't permanently remove the history of apps you've purchased, but you can hide them. See this link:

    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 ...

  • HT5824 How can you permanently delete books from Ibooks

    How can you permanently delete books from IBooks?

    You cant permanently delete them, but you can hide them.
    Pop into iTunes, and in the iTunes Store under Quick Links along the right hand side, you can see Purchases, and then sign in, look at your books and click on the X in the top left and it will hide them so you dont have to see them.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I permanently remove apps from iCloud?

    I would like to permanently remove old and unwanted apps from iCloud and all my devices (iPad, iPhone, and iTunes), but there does not seem to be a way to do this. In fact, there seems to be an strong underlying effort to avoid this option. No discussions, no steps, no Support options.
    Any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    The apps are not actually in your iCloud storage, they are links to the apps in the App Store. What you are seeing is your purchase history and as such cannot be deleted.
    You can however hide your purchases, which you can do from the QuickLinks > Purchased option from the main page in the iTunes Store on your computer.

  • How do I permanently delete apps from my purchased list?

    I know how to hide them but I just want to clear them permanently so that I don't have all this 'documents and data' saved from apps that I only used once and have long since deleted, can u help?

    You can't permanently delete any item from your account's purchase history, hiding them is all that you can do.
    You can control which apps are backed up to the cloud via Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Manage Storage on the device - do those apps show there, and you are able to delete their content from the backup there ?

  • HT5557 How do I permanently delete books from iCloud?

    Trying to delete books from iBooks/iCloud.  Help.

    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 apps and iOS 7, after hiding them on my computer's iTunes I've been having to then log out of my account on my devices and then log back for them to be hidden on that device.
    If ibooks that are only in the cloud are showing on the bookshelf in the iBooks app then you can turn that off via Settings > iBooks > Show All Purchases 'off'

    I would like to know if it's possible to permanently delete unwanted apps and moves off my Ipad2? I have tried my when I reset my Ipad, they are still there! HELP

    Yes you can permanently delete them from the iPad, but if you sync with iTunes and the apps and movies are still in iTunes, you have to delete them in there as well or they will transfer back to the iPad once you sync again.
    Forgive the title of the website.

    If this isn't working for you, explain what you are doing and what "reset my iPad" means in this regard.

  • How can I permanently delete photos from my boyfriends phone??

    Hi all,
    My boyfriend has photos of me that I dont want him to have.
    I've asked him to delete them but he jokes that he will.... eventually.
    He has an iPhone 4S. I want to permanently delete some photos he has, I dont want him to be able to do some kind of sync or backup & have them again.
    If I deleted them from his iTunes.. his desktop picture folders.. his PC recycle bin AND deleted them off his phone, will he still be able to find them?? Also if he does an update in the future, will they somehow appear again? And how can I know if he has synced them to iCloud/set up iCloud?
    Thanks in advance

    Theyre all in his Camera Roll. I've never downloaded/updated the iCloud control panel on my pc,
    So he syncs only to your PC?
    I dont think he has the Shared Photo Stream option on, but I'll check. If he does have it, is it simple to access it?
    Open the Photos app, tap Shared at bottom to see any Shared Photo Streams.
    My Photo Stream is in Albums.

  • How can i not download app from icloud

    A few months ago i played a game called clash of clans. and was using my brothers apple ID on my phone. few days after that i deleted it and had a new id on my phone. then recently i download it again. but it still showed my brothers record. i ve changed everything like game center, icloud, i tune store id but it just kept that record. it was shown downloaded from icloud. so how can i download the game and start a new account?

    That means it was previously purchased and available to redownload from iTunes in the Cloud.  This still downloads it from the App store.  No apps (or other purchased media for that matter) are stored in your personal iCloud account.  Even when you restore from an iCloud backup your media is simply redownloaded from the iTunes and App store.

  • How do I permanently delete apps from my iPad?

    When you delete an application, it's data is not permanently deleted.  I'd like to know how you permanently delete all of the application data.

    This is copied for an iPhone thread but it works the same way for an iPad.
    If you really want to get rid of it: iTunes>Library>Apps...right-click the app you want to delete, select delete, when prompted, move all files to trash, empty your trash. Then, make sure you first delete the app on your phone, then sync your phone. The app and all traces of its data will be gone.
    iTunes meaning launch iTunes on your computer and remove the app from your iTunes library as well.
    Here is the thread.
