Over time, apps generate cache files and logs during their daily operation, consuming valuable storage space on your iPhone without you even realizing it. If your device has been lagging or crashing frequently, it might be time to clean up some unnecessary apps. In this article, I will guide you through three methods to delete multiple apps at once on your iPhone.
Since Apple removed the app management feature from iTunes in versions after 12.7, it’s no longer possible to delete apps on your iPhone or iPad with a single click. However, third-party tools like iSunshare iDevice Genius can help you efficiently uninstall multiple apps at once. This tool also allows you to manage and clean up files on your iOS devices, including junk logs, file caches, large files, and more.
Step 1: Download and install iSunshare iDevice Genius on your computer, then connect your iPhone to your computer.
Step 2: Run the software, select the "Uninstall" option, and click the "Scan" button. iDevice Genius will start scanning apps on your device and list them out immediately, even those hidden apps on iPhone.
Step 3: Now, click "Uninstall" to remove unnecessary apps from your iPhone.
Tip: If you want to free up space without removing apps, please use the "Fast Cleanup" feature of this tool.
If you prefer not to use a third-party tool, you can manually remove apps directly from your iPhone’s home screen. Although this method requires removing apps one by one, it’s effective for those who have organized their apps into multiple folders and categories.
Step 1: Long press on any app on your iPhone home screen, then click the "Edit Home Screen" option.
Step 2: All the apps on this screen will start shaking, tap the "-" icon next to the app you want to remove.
Step 3: Click on "Delete App" and confirm by clicking "Delete" again.
The "Offload" feature on your iPhone is a useful tool that allows you to delete an app while retaining its data and files. After offloading an app, you can reinstall it later and continue using your saved data and settings.
Note: Although you have enable the "Offload" feature on your iPhone, those unused apps will be automatically uninstalled only when the device is low on storage space. You can manually "uninstall" some unnecessary apps to free up storage space on your iPhone as follows.
Step 1: Open the "Settings" app and click on the "General" > "iPhone Storage" option.
Step 2: Select the apps you want to delete, click on the "Offload" option to confirm the selection, and then delete the apps immediately.
Step 3: If you find that you have deleted an app by mistake, you can click on the "Reinstall" button to reinstall it. It has a cloud icon next to it, which indicates that the data for this app is still on the iPhone.
When an app on your iPhone repeatedly crashes, for example, TikTok keeps crashing on your device, you can offload the TikTok app to try to fix it, rather than just deleting it.
