Tips

 


Given the fact that you’ve likely owned an iPhone for years, if not a decade or more, you can just ahead of delete an app that promises to provide tips on how to use your device.

 


Watch

 


If you own an Apple Watch, you may find this app helpful, as it is designed to connect to your watch and sync your information. If you don’t have an Apple Watch though, it isn’t going to be helpful.

Compass

 


Maybe you’ve opened up the Compass app once or twice and marveled at the direction your house faces. But chances are you barely looked at this app ever again. If that sounds like your situation, you can delete Compass.

 


Voice Memos

 


Some wouldn’t dream of deleting Voice Memos — it’s an app they rely on to jot own thoughts when pen and paper isn’t available or they don’t feel like typing out a Note. Never heard of Voice Memos? Never even opened the app? You can delete it and save a little storage space.
