Almost all apps on an iPhone can be removed, or disabled. The only ones which cannot be removed are Messages, Photos, Camera, Settings, Safari and Clock because they are integral to the system. The choice of using the other apps is entirely up to the user, and alternatives can be used to access the camera, send messages and browse the web.
