I own an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

I seem to have acquired a number of apps that either were forced on me or that I thought I wanted.

I no longer want these.

I hope that someone here can help me delete them!

TIA.

Either I installed them, or the company that used them installed them. CaliforniaPeggy Jul 2023 #7

An window will pop up that gives you the option to remove the app.
If it asks you to remove the data too, just say yes.

It's odd, but I no longer remember just which ones they were. I never used them, for the most part.
