Just to say you can’t delete iBooks as it is now part of iOS as of version 8. You can, however, move it to somewhere like a folder with apps you don’t use. > On 24 Apr 2016, at 01:33, Pinky wrote: > > Hi Everyone, > Two question. > 1. Can I delete the iBook app? > 2. How do I delete

Hi I use the Tesco and Asda grocery apps to do my shopping. I also have the Morrisons and Ocado apps but only use these for browsing now since I find Tesco and Asda to be reasonably priced and offer a good delivery service. Although I get help at home, I do put most or all of my shopping away.

There should have been a way not to enter a passcode during set up. If you double tap on "passcode options" button, there is an option to "don't add a passcode". Then you double tap continue to confirm you really don't want to add a passcode. > On 1 Apr 2016, at 19:40, Donald L. Roberts wrote:
