Flash memory does have a read/write limit. After a certain amount of cycles, a
particular transistor in the memory will stop working reliably. However, it
will take years before that starts to happen, and all flash drives, SD cards,

SSDs aren't like thumb drives. They are much more reliable and don't have that
problem of write limits.
If you have the money for one, than that's great. But, you don't need anything
like this unless your doing something like audio or video production. They
are much more costly.

You use one finger and double tap but hold the second tap. After a couple of
seconds you will hear a tone that puts your phone in editing mode. You can then
do a regular double tap on any app and it will delete it.

Sorry for not understanding. When you say double tap, do you mean two fingers
together and tap the icon twice. If I do a normal double tap, the App opens. I
tried finding the App and holding two fingers together and tap the icon, my
