4 pre-installed iPhone apps you can safely delete
Every iPhone ships with a bunch of Apple apps pre-installed, but let’s be honest—you don’t actually use all of them. Some are redundant, others just take up space, and a few feel stuck in the past. The good news? You can safely delete them without breaking anything. Here are four apps worth clearing out today
1/4
Stocks
Unless you actively monitor the markets every day, Apple’s Stocks app mostly clutters your home screen. Third-party finance apps or even widgets from your broker usually provide more customisable updates.

Books
Apple Books is polished, but if you already rely on Kindle or Audible, it becomes redundant. Deleting it frees space and cuts down on unnecessary notifications.
3/4
iTunes Store
With Apple Music, the App Store, and streaming platforms dominating, the old iTunes Store is rarely useful. You won’t miss it unless you still purchase individual tracks or movies.
4/4
Tips
Handy for first-time iPhone users, but once you’ve mastered iOS basics, the app quickly outlives its purpose. Apple Support or quick web searches are better sources for troubleshooting.
