Hello,There is another option available, although it does require a few more steps. In the Settings app, go to general, then look for iPhone storage. Once there, scroll through the list, and find the name of the app that you wish to delete. Open that option, and at the very bottom, you should see
I hate to state the obvious but when you get to the next screen which only
shows Remove app and Cancel, are you placing focus on Remove app and double
tapping? This is the final confirmation screen ensuring you want to delete the

I would avoid the e4 or e5 unless you have a really small place, those two
don't use mapping, they are more random, I would get something from the Q

Hello,
I am late to this discussion so I may be repeating things others have said
earlier. I assume you are running the latest version of IOS, IOS 15.5, and you
are a Voiceover user. Here is how I delete apps.
1. Flick to the app you wish to delete.
2. Flick up till you reach the "edit"

Hi,
It will fall off stairs if that’s what you’re asking. There are also external
sensors that can be purchased to prevent this from happening. Mind you, you can
always place a cane/broom on the floor by the stairs so that it doesn’t go past
it as well.

Hi all I know how accessible the Roomba app is by readin the reviews but I
am wondering if it detects stairs? Since I live in a one bedroom upstairs

would not want it to stumble down the stairs. Many thanks. From Mich.
I had a friend with a good sense of humor, who had a Rumba; she named it Murphy
(Murphy's law). When she was moving the housekeeper started Murphy and was
mopping, had the front door open, and out Murphy went. They grabbed it, got it

You can go to us.roborock.com and choose the store link, they might have some
sales on some of their bots right now. I would avoid the Roborock E4 or E5
since these robots use random navigation rather than mapping the house, go with
something in the Q or S series.

The app for Roomba is very accessible, but it's definitely not the best brand
to get, you would have been much better off going with a Roborock, their
