Woohoo.
Stocks, Watch, Compass, iBooks…there’s finally a way to delete the iPhone apps you rarely use.
With the latest update, iOS 10, you’ll now be able to delete all those reinstalled apps and have the option of redownloading them via the iTunes store if you so wish.
According to The Verge, apps including Messages, Camera, Photos and Game Center aren’t removable but we can live with that.
Although iOS 10 was announced today, it’s not expected to be made available until later this year to coincide with the release of Apple’s latest iPhone.
A major Apple Conference took place in California yesterday and announced changes to Siri, a re-designed Apple watch and improvements for Mac’s operating system.
The app news wasn’t announced but a couple of tech experts and beta testers noticed the upcoming change, which we have to say we’re absolutely DELIGHTED about.
More spacs on your iPhone can only be a good thing in fairness.
