HT201322 How do I "Hide" an app from my purchase history on my iphone 5?

I've seen instructions on how to do this on so many other devices, but I can't seem to find an answer related to the iPhone 5.

You can't currently do it directly on devices that are running iOS 6, you will need to do it via your computer'siTunes

  • How can I delete an app from my purchased history?

    When I go to app store on my iPad 2, there is a purchased menu.
    If I enter it, I can see the whole apps that I've purchased on my account since I registerd.
    It's about 400 apps, and I want to delete some of them.
    If anyone knows, pleased tell me how can I delete them.
    Thank you,,,

    I disagree regarding Very complecated.   Its just a database entry of for example "ShowInPurchaseHistory"=False.
    The purchase history would remain.  If you wanted the app back you would just do it the old fasion way of remembering the app name and redownloading it from the store.   Redownloading it would then reset the ShowInPurchaseHistory" = True, which would show it again.
    Seems easy to me.   Hopefully when it is out of "beta" we will see the feature we are all looking for come to life.

  • How can i delete an app from my purchase history?

    I have been using my iTunes account for many years now and have recently had an issue where my password was stolen by an app that I had not downloaded. I am worrying that (now that I have changed my password), there is an update for the supposed 'game' and it shows up in every update list on all my devices, that they will steal it again. I need to delete this off my purchase history because I do not want to update my other games and apps by entering my password. (you can tell it is not any normal app because it took £57.83 from my account) so I am up for suggestions of what to do...

    You can only hide the the application in your account preferences via itunes store. The app shouldn'd be requesting update unless you still have it installed on your device. If so delete the app, and uncheck the app if you sync with itunes for APPS
    If this supposed app took monies from your account, it would help to contact itunes support and let then know. This is community forum.
    Peace

  • TS1702 How do I delete an app from the purchased area?

    I allowed my grandson to use my device. iPad 2
    He downloaded several which I wish to uninstall.
    How do I do that?

    Tap and hold down on an icon until it jiggles, then tap the X on the icon to delete the app from the device itself.
    You cannot remove apps from the purchased list on the iPad in iOS 6. You can hide apps in the purchased tab but you have to do it from a computer using iTunes. You can read about it here.

    If you are running iOS 5, swipe across the cloud icon next to app in the purchased tab of the app store and a Hide button will appear.

  • How can I "DELETE, NOT HIDE" my app from my purchased list?

    I have a child.  And like children they are very clever sometimes with downloading apps.  Mine has downloaded hundreds of apps on my account in the last couple years and I want to delete them from my purchased list.  I am kinda OCD when it comes to Data organization and like to be able to sort quickly through my list instead of constantly questioning certain apps that I may or may not have downloaded. I think we should have the right to delete these apps at our discretion. Simply hiding the app does nothing for me.  Will we see this soon?

    I agree. It should be possible to completely remove any app from the 'Purchaced' list. Especially the 'free' apps that we trie and uninstall after we discover it is not what we wanted. Now these apps remain in the list forever?

  • 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 ?

  • How do I transfer an app from itunes my pc to my iphone 4s? I cant use wifi as my chip fried at the last update

    How can I transfer an App purchased on iTunes on my pc to my iPhone 4s. I have tried synching but this does not make the app appear on my iPhone. I cant use wifi as my chip was fried on the latest update.

    When you tried syncing, did you connect the phone, then click on the phone icon near the top left of iTunes, then click on Apps under Settings in the sidebar, then find the app in question and click the Install button beside it before clicking Sync at the bottom right?

  • HT4484 How can I remove an application from my "Purchased" history?

    I have installed some apps then removed them from iPad. How can remove them from App Store purchased application?

    You can't.   Purchase history remains even though you have deleted the apps themselves.  You can hide them so that they do not show up.

  • HT201322 I hide an app from my purchased list but it keeps being unhidden, what can I do?

    I do it from iTunes but then when I go to "hidden apps" on "my account" it's not there uploaded. Then I come back to "purchased" and I see the app. What can I do? What's not working?

    apple.com -> support -> contact apple support -> get started -> choose your topic related to your problem (e.g. in this problem i selected itunes -> itunes store -> other itunes store topics -> the topic is not listed then you can type your problem.) if your problem is not related to any topic above, apple will give u the option to email them, just fill in all the info and your problem and press send, you will receive your reply within 48 hours. I am not sure if they offer phone support or not.
