Some iPhone Apps can Not be Deleted

[Alan Mac Farlan]

Are you sure it's not on the phone anymore? It shouldn't be asking you to update if the app isn't on the phone.

well clearly the iPhone app ... 'thinks' .. it is still on the iPhone.

See if a clean wipe and restore gets what on the iPhone that is there on your iMac for it to be there ... even if you have to reinstall the stock iOS .. in this case iOS 8. Then put in the apps that you want ...

and have ... all that done on your iTunes account.

Still ... having a USED iPhone .. the computer system has it in the name of the original owner purchaser.

It is not like a used car where you go down and register it .. as the new owner and there is a sales slip and owners certificate that is signed off by the old owner .. making you the new owner.

That has not happened yet with Apple.

Make the resale value higher on used phones if that was so .. I would think.

As it would be no headache plug and play as advertised .. the desire of the heart for every person on the planet ...

who do not like headaches.

I want the Health App gone ..

as it is illegal electronic surveillance and against the law .. and against my person for injury ...

Apple wants the Health App there, no delete, and no turning it off.

So .. Apple Inc sucks the big one on that; IMO of course.

Once the precious owner resets and clears all data and you restore and start as new there's nothing from the previous owner there. It works just fine and as it should.

As for Health app, seems like that was already addressed in a different thread about that in particular.
