Delete apps

[aidan_ree]

How do I delete apps from my iPod Touch if those apps are off the main pages (other by deleting from iTunes)?

I'm a bit confused by the question.
You can delete apps by pressing on an app until everything starts to shake. Then you can press the "x" to delete them.
You can't delete the apps that come with the iPod Touch, however.
You can hide the Safari, iTunes and YouTube apps by going to Setting>General>Restrictions and disabling whichever one you want.

I don't know of a way to delete apps that you can't see (i.e., those listed after page 11) on the iPhone itself. I am curious why you would care unless you never sync with iTunes on your computer. Are you running out of space?

[aidan_ree]

Am running out of space, syncing with iTunes sometimes takes a long time, so I only try to do that during the weekends.

Have you tried adding more pages (http://www.touchmyapps.com/forums/showthread.php?43-Get-More-Than-11-Pages-of-Apps-%28No-Jailbreak%29) to your Touch? (This seems to require the voice memo app, I don't knowif this is available on the Touch.)

[aidan_ree]

Done that - pages are also full. I am kind of addicted to downloading apps....

[Thunderclaw]

The voice memo app is actually on iPod Touches. Kind of pointless though.

Maybe you should delete some pointless ones.

That's what I do. Every couple of weeks I just clear out the apps that I just don't use.

Ham sandwich to you!

pff...or you could jailbreak and use Categories. i got like 330 or so apps installed and grouped up into categories so i only have a few screens with icons on them at any given moment

If I have a lot of non-visible ones, I'll sync and use the organizer in iTunes and delete a bunch of stuff. Hopefully OS 4.0 will add unlimited pages or the ability to delete things from the spotlight search.

[aidan_ree]

Ok just deleted some stuff and sync. Discovered that I have lots of apps downloaded but forgotten as there are not visible. Hmm, I wish I can categorize the apps....

[juubee]

Do you mean they're not visible on the iPod or because they are on iTunes you forgot about them?

[Jim]

I think he made them invisible with the icon hide toggle in SBsettings...

[juubee]

^ Wait.. where can you find that setting? o___O

[Jim]

1) jailbreak your device...
2)Install SBsettings
3)Configure it

[aidan_ree]

Its not visible on the iPod. I usually play around with the iPod only and only uses the iTunes during the weekend. Would be lovely if I can see all without resorting to jailbreaking.

agree, the same way on iPhone

I do wish, however, that deleting supplied apps was possible. For instance, stock app and the magazine app I never use. There is spam on the iDevice, but not too much.
