Re: Delete & remove in iOS
My guess is that health and home can't be deleted because they're not just simple apps. If you can't deal with that by putting them on the last page of your device into a folder that you may name trash or whatever, I suggest you get an android and see if you like that any better. This is such a non-issue. Just move the damn things where you don't have to look at them and forget about it. Why is that hard?

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
Hi Mary, Such bad words and on a Sunday… naughty, naughty *smile*. Health can indeed not be deleted and so far I found that apps like Phone, Messages, Settings, Camera, Health, App Store, Photos/Videos and a few others can’t be deleted as they are pretty crutial to iOS core functionality. Home, however, can be deleted, I just tested it since I didn’t have anything in it right now and it goes away.

Mary, Yes, they seem to be so, but Apple Inc. needs to do something about this. Not all want these or any of the “undeletable” apps. I did tell the staff at Apple Accessibility on this one.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
It's not true that Android isn't accessible at all. You may think Apple is more accessible, but that's not the same thing as Android not being accessible at all. I've always found the Apple apps I can't remove from my iPhone to be an annoyance and not a huge deal. If this is our biggest concern with Apple then they must be doing a great job with accessibility!

Sieghard, The point here is that Apple Inc. cannot expect everyone or as many as possible to use all their apps like this. They need to change for the better.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
Again, Todd, because you or I might not have any use for them, it doesn’t mean that others don’t use them. Move them into a folder as I’ve done with the apps I don’t use. You can tell Apple accessibility all you want, but it doesn’t change the fact you are a single user and there are millions of others who make use of the apps you or I may not consider important or useful. Apple is far from the only company who unfortunately has what might be called bloatware on their systems. I agree with you that it would be nice to have the ability to delete some apps, but I also understand why this isn’t the case. Thus, again, that’s why you can create folders. Take Care John D.

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
Hi John, I usually move all the apps I don’t use or use extremely rarely to whatever the last home page is for me, in my case it is page 4. Now that so many apps can be deleted there are very few that go on that page. Stocks and iBooks are two examples, both can be deleted but I keep them just because occasionally a PDF needs to open in iBooks or I may in fact want to know how a particular stock is doing. This way they are out of the way where I never need to go which to me is even better than putting them into a folder which I then have on a home page I do use. I wouldn’t even call this bloatware, apart from essential apps there are only a few which can’t be deleted. Yes, Health is one of them, for me that is OK because I use it frequently and I’m pretty sure quite a few of us on this list do use it on a pretty regular bases as many of us have compatible devices like scales or blood pressure monitors etc. Anyhow, judging from the responses I have seen it would that only one person has a real issue with the fact that there are maybe 2 or 3 apps which can’t be deleted, as Christopher said, if we start getting into minor details like that .there must be very few major ones.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
You can get rid of a lot of the Apple stock apps, stocks being one. Like I said, my suspicion is that there is more complications surrounding things like the home app and the Health app. Imagine the Hugh and cry if somebody had other apps on their system that were using those and then stupidly deleted home or health. Oh boy. Apple would hear from those folks. And it would of course not be Apple's fault. But you just know there would be somebody or more than one somebody out there who would try it. Maybe just because they could. This is such a non-issue, Todd. Given the strides that Apple has made and letting you get rid of their other apps. If you really hate it that much, go try android. Then you will find that there are things that you can't delete from there either. So if you don't like it, at least you can stop talking about it on the list.

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
Mary, That is your own word! I followed to what you said. There are some things you are overlooking. Todd From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mary Otten Sent: Sunday, November 20, 2016 7:03 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Delete & remove in iOS You can get rid of a lot of the Apple stock apps, stocks being one. Like I said, my suspicion is that there is more complications surrounding things like the home app and the Health app. Imagine the Hugh and cry if somebody had other apps on their system that were using those and then stupidly deleted home or health. Oh boy. Apple would hear from those folks. And it would of course not be Apple's fault. But you just know there would be somebody or more than one somebody out there who would try it. Maybe just because they could. This is such a non-issue, Todd. Given the strides that Apple has made and letting you get rid of their other apps. If you really hate it that much, go try android. Then you will find that there are things that you can't delete from there either. So if you don't like it, at least you can stop talking about it on the list.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
Have you personally tried both platforms? I don't have a problem with someone having an opinion and thinking IOS is more accessible than Android, but I think it's a disservice to blind people everywhere to state something as a fact that's only an opinion. this is especially true when it isn't based on personal experience but rather just hear say. There are definitely areas where IOS is more accessible than Android, but for how I use my phone, I find Android is just as accessible as Apple. IMHO, the question of whether one is more accessible than the other is more complicated than just stating it's a fact. It goes to how each person uses their phone and what each person finds to be important to them. This is why I like reviews from people who have used both platforms and I discourage people from listening to one line statements. Besides, you've said both that Android isn't accessible at all and that it isn't as as accessible as IOS. These two statements aren't the same, so which are you saying is a simple fact?

Hi Sieghard, I'm curious that you keep iBooks around just so you can open a PDF. Do you have voice dream? My luck with PDFs in that app has been far greater than it has in iBooks.

A lot of that stuff that you don't like on that separate page was present, just in other places, like notifications. I don't use it much either. But I don't have to mess with it if I don't want to. You seem to think that they should do everything just because you wanted that way. That is a whole lot of entitlement coming for one guy.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
Yes, I use Health every day. I am using “bloatware” as a relative term some designate the apps they don’t consider to be useful to them. Personally, I consider very few apps on the iDevices as “useless”, but there are a few I wish could be deleted. I do like your solution, but I have gotten to the point in which I economize screen space by using folders. Since I can call upon SIRI to open them, it really doesn’t matter where I put them in the end. Take Care John D.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
I'm with you on the folder, John. I have apps I seldom use on my last page, along with a folder of apps I never use. Or maybe I used to use them, and then they became in accessible, and I keep them in case they become accessible again. So you have your almost never and you're never. And the never once go into a folder. Mary Sent from my iPhone > On Nov 20, 2016, at 5:40 PM, John Panarese wrote: > >Yes, I use Health every day.

Now that so many apps can be deleted there are very few that go on that page. Stocks and iBooks are two examples, both can be deleted but I keep them just because occasionally a PDF needs to open in iBooks or I may in fact want to know how a particular stock is doing. This way they are out of the way where I never need to go which to me is even better than putting them into a folder which I then have on a home page I do use. I wouldn’t even call this bloatware, apart from essential apps there are only a few which can’t be deleted. Yes, Health is one of them, for me that is OK because I use it frequently and I’m pretty sure quite a few of us on this list do use it on a pretty regular bases as many of us have compatible devices like scales or blood pressure monitors etc. Anyhow, judging from the responses I have seen it would that only one person has a real issue with the fact that there are maybe 2 or 3 apps which can’t be deleted, as Christopher said, if we start getting into minor details like that .there must be very few major ones.

Move them into a folder as I’ve done with the apps I don’t use.

Apple is far from the only company who unfortunately has what might be called bloatware on their systems. I agree with you that it would be nice to have the ability to delete some apps, but I also understand why this isn’t the case. Thus, again, that’s why you can create folders. Take Care John D.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
Todd, You keep telling us to think twice? I think you are the one who needs to do this. Everyone is making the point that there are apps that are preferred and used, and to say Apple forces too many on their customers is, again, a very general and subjective statement based on your personal opinion. You keep saying not all the apps, yet you infer that there are more than enough that shouldn’t be on the devices at all. Yet, it has been repeatedly stated that many customers Want those apps present on their devices. So, how is Apple wrong? Most of them can be deleted in iOS 10, and those that cannot be removed can be conveniently placed elsewhere and don’t consume the kind of space on a device as probably was the case when we only had 8 and 16 GB models out there. I have 128 GB on my iPhone, so a few stock apps placed in folders is not using any real estate I’m personally worried about. At this point, I think a lot of people are only filling devices with video and audio far more than the applications. Take Care John D.

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
John, Who do you yourself think you yourself are? Saying, Think twice is simply a habitual way to say. You are not alone to whom I use to quote it. Plus, I am not alone in quoting that; Rich is another one. I want you and the folks here to realize what was said stands correct. I care less about music, videos, and some of the apps. I have no interest in music. Too much of music is enough. That is why I said iTunes should be used in a more narrow way, not mixing it with apps where music is not mentioned. That is simply ridiculous and should be changed for the better. John, you have a lot yet to learn. If you, John, or anyone do/does not like what I said, that is too bad for y’all. This concludes. Thanks.

Health might be useless to you. but I get gift cards from Amazon and iTunes for walking five miles a day thanks to the Health app. I use it to count my steps. Then I open my insurance app and the information from the health app is seamlessly transferred to the insurance app and when I get enough points I can cash in for as many gift cards as I can. I have already spent quite a few dollars at both Amazon and the App store over the past few years. I could save up for other purchases, even iPads and there are other stores as well such as Target.

Yet, it has been repeatedly stated that many customers Want those apps present on their devices. So, how is Apple wrong? Most of them can be deleted in iOS 10, and those that cannot be removed can be conveniently placed elsewhere and don’t consume the kind of space on a device as probably was the case when we only had 8 and 16 GB models out there.

Hi Christopher, Todd is Deaf Blind, so for him, Android is not at all viable. It's Braille support as publicly available is well below par. I have learned the hard way that there is little sympathy on this list, or in the blind community as a whole it seems, for the needs of the Deaf Blind which is why I have mostly stopped posting here. But I did want to chime in and at least make this point.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
Fair enough Jonathan, and I did think about that since I knew Todd was deaf blind. If he'd said Android wasn't an option for him because of it's inadequate braille support then I never would have said anything. Since he made a blanket statement though, I guess I jumped in when maybe the smarter thing would have been to let it go. I think of myself as sympathetic to the deaf blind, but I admit, I don't often think of the challenges faced by the deaf blind. I'm also not sure that I agree with Todd that his deaf blindness explains away his rudeness on this list.

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
Hi Todd, Why can’t you just move these app you don’t want into a folder and put them on the last page of apps. That is so simple to do and stop whining like a spoiled brat that does not get his way. You need to grow up and just move the apps. I know you are going to respond that you are not a spoiled little brat. So let’s hear you whine again. One other reminder. I knew of another person on this list that kept whining about IOS all the time and he is no longer on this list. So grow up a little and get off your high horse and except the facts about IOS as they are. Not being perfect the way you want them. I am visually impaired and severely hard of hearing and I want to be an airline pilot or a brain surgeon. Do you want to be my first passenger or patient?

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
Mr. Ed, I was not aware Todd was deaf/blind, but having read all of his posts it seems he is a tad nasty to people who he wishes to help him. I do not care if someone is deaf, blind, black, white, Asian, in a wheelchair, have a guide dog, an Indian-American or someone outside the country, U.S., there is no need to be nasty. There is far, far too much of that going around. It is time he try and make a point without attacking the very folks who are helping him. I have a hearing deficit also and frustration with some parts of iPhone, but I lived when there were no computers much less voice or braille displays. Talk about frustration. I had to use an Optacon to read my whole screen on my first computer at work. Couldn't even do that With just a typewriter. I do not know his age, but it does come across as a spoiled child. Jonathan is never nasty, and he has a worse hearing difficulty than me. Would Helen Keller be nasty? Me thinks not!!!

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
Hi Shaf, I may not agree with Todd's attitude, but you still should be careful when you judge, you simply don't know somebody until you walked in their shoes. I definitely also don't appreciate people calling others jerk no matter what, those who do that are no better and often worse than the person they are so quick to label with such words. If I were moderator you would be off the list based on that statement.

Hi Todd and all! How are you all? Hey Tod, I use and my boyfriend use a focus 14 blue display. Since my boyfriend is deafblind, he is able to delete the apps with it. And he is able to do a lot with it. And he is profoundly deaf and he is blind as well. maybe you should consider in getting the focus 14 blue display since I find a better display to work with. I use an iPhone 7. What kind of phone do you have? Just wondering. I loook forward in hearing form you'd oon. Thanks and God bless!

Hello, He's certainly older than me, knows Rich for 35 years, as we've been told about 10 times the last 7 days. I didn't even exist back then myself. Sent from a BrailleNote - Original Message - From: regina alvarado Mr. Ed, I was not aware Todd was deaf/blind, but having read all of his posts it seems he is a tad nasty to people who he wishes to help him. I do not care if someone is deaf, blind, black, white, Asian, in a wheelchair, have a guide dog, an Indian-American or someone outside the country, U.S., there is no need to be nasty. There is far, far too much of that going around. It is time he try and make a point without attacking the very folks who are helping him. I have a hearing deficit also and frustration with some parts of iPhone, but I lived when there were no computers much less voice or braille displays. Talk about frustration. I had to use an Optacon to read my whole screen on my first computer at work. Couldn't even do that With just a typewriter. I do not know his age, but it does come across as a spoiled child.

Re: Delete & remove in iOS
As I read this exchange it occurs to me that perhaps Todd may not be a native English speaker, so perhaps there may be a language barrier thus causing something to be lost in translation. I don't see this as a way to excuse nasty behavior, but, sometimes when words are not translated correctly it could lead to misunderstandings.

RE: Delete & remove in iOS
Julian and Rajmund, Please be careful. You stated I am not an English native speaker. This is incorrect. Remind you, Mark the moderator already posted a note to all of y'all. Please say no more.

I don't see this as a way to excuse nasty behavior, but, sometimes when words are not translated correctly it could lead to misunderstandings.
