I have a folder on my iPhone that i use for unused apps i cant delete or almost never use. In that folder i have:
Default weather app: such a POS, weather channel max FTW
Stocks: if i did like stocks i wouldn't use this terrible widget, id get the Bloomberg one.
YouTube app: i google videos i wanna see and youtube opens automagically.
Compas: lol
voice memos: i don't use it, evernote ftw
contacts app: phone has this built in....
FML app: i keep it around for when i truly have nothing better to read.

So what apps do you hide?

Yes, it's called iTunes. I keep it on my computer.

I have a rule. If I don't use an app in any two month period --- or for as long as I can remember, whichever comes first -- it goes off of my phone/iPad. I don't need clutter. It makes it too hard to navigate which wastes time.

good point, I'm more of a pack rat, i like to have many apps for many things, you never know when you might need one. I love searching for an app vs going to click it, but i go back and forth depending on my mood.

Erm just how does iTunes get rid of Stocks? I think you may have forgotten to read the OP ...

True. My only issue is I have over 500 apps in itunes so it's still ridiculous navigating to find an app to put back up there.
