Hi, For me its not about the space, but more about organization of my home screens. Currently I have an iCrap folder which contains all the built-in apps that I don't use and can't delete, such as Stocks etc. If I could delete these icons, it would make my home screens much cleaner and take less organisation to get things set-up the way I like.
Cheers, Brett. Cheers Brett. > On 8 Sep 2016, at 10:11 AM, Mary Otten <[email protected]> wrote: > > The thing about deleting many default applications is not accurate.
