Now, what if the app icon is stubborn? Some apps—like Apple’s own “Stocks” or “Health”—don’t show the “X.” They sneer at you from the screen. This is where you channel your inner hacker. Open Settings. Yes, the gray gear icon that’s watched you scroll Reddit for three hours. Tap “General,” then “iPhone Storage.” Wait for the list to load—this takes longer than a DMV visit.
Scroll down. You’ll see every app, sorted by size. Tap the offender. A new screen appears, showing the app’s life story: “Documents & Data,” “Last Used,” “Size.” It’s like a digital autopsy. Tap “Delete App.” Confirm. The app evaporates, and your phone does a tiny victory shiver. I assume. I can’t prove it, but I feel it.

Celebrate by deleting another app.
