Q: How do I remove app that won't install or delete

Try removing here:

Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Delete App/Apps

Try this:

1. Sign out of Apple ID.

2. Reset iPad. Hold Sleep and Home button down until you see Apple Logo.

3. Sign in to Apple ID.

You are most welcome

Thank you, thank you! This worked for me.

on my iPad I went to settings>general>Storage & iCloud usage>Storage>manage storage. Open the app you want to delete and you will get a delete option.

I was looking to delete the Pages App that was stuck in waiting. I also discovered that I could see whether or not my Pages documents were stored in the cloud by following this path settings>general>Storage & iCloud usage>iCloud>manage storage.

This has also happened to me. And I can't find a way to get out of it, it says to keep on waiting but nothing happens. When I try to delete the app (oh by the way it's snapchat) nothing happens. HELP!

Yout don't have to do all of the signing out of the ipad think and resetting your phone, you could just go to storage and delete the app

This was the Best and Only way to get rid of it!

Thanks

TThis didn't work for iPhone. Do you know what else I can try? Thanks!

Thankyou so much for this great advice!! Helped a lot !

go on to setting then general then storage and iCloud usage then  Manage storage then click on the app you want then at the bottom press the delete app button
