I agree, if you have 32 bit apps which haven’t been updated by now you might as well delete them and find alternatives. This option appeals more to my sense of order just as I think it’s always a good idea to check for updates before updating and to make sure all apps are up-to-date.

The only other alternative is not to update to IOS 11.

After updating their icons will indicate that they’re in the cloud and if you interact with the icon it’ll give you the choice to keep perhaps in fleeting hope that an update will one day manifest or delete them. I chose to delete the ones I had as my best educated guess was that if they hadn’t been updated at this point odds were that they’d either been abandoned completely and an update would never be arriving. Mercifully I only had 3 apps in this situation at the time of upgrading. None were really essential to my daily life still it was sad to see them go. I hope that helps. Robin From: Alan Lemly Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2017 12:32 PM To: VIPhone Email List Subject: Opinions on 32-bit apps not used before upgrading to iOS 11 - delete or leave alone Hi List, I'm curious as to the consensus on what to do with apps on my iPhone 7 that will no longer be supported because they aren't 64-bit before I upgrade to iOS 11. I know the tidiest thing would be to remove them from my phone before updating iOS. Is there a risk that anyone actually knows about of simply leaving them on the phone? Space is not an issue in my case but I don't want to be lazy and not do the proper housekeeping and one of these older apps cause my phone to tank. If anyone has any actual experience with what might happen if these apps are left alone, I'd love to hear it. And opinions are welcome although I can guess that most will opine that I should get off my lazy butt and get to deleting. I think I have about 244 apps on my iPhone so that is good advice. Thanks in advance. Alan Lemly -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
