Delete Apple Maps on iMac?

There are other apps included in the OS - if you do not need them, ignore them - I do. There is no user access to the OS for security reasons, the OS and all system files are now sequestered in a read-only inaccessible volume.

If you wish to tell Apple not to include an app, you can make a suggestion here:

www.apple.com/feedback

An additional idea would be to return the Mac and buy a computer with a different platform. Maybe their OS does not have trivial apps included.

Apps take up comparatively very little space. There are apps that are installed as part of the OS and cannot be removed.

If you are that short on space, you need to consider that you should be needing a larger hard drive. Please remember that you need to have an absolute minimum of 15 - 20 GB of empty space at all times for the OS to function properly. If you fill it up completely, it will stop functioning.

Removing from the dock does not free up any space. The iMac is a workstation and has no need for such a trivial feature

Maps uses 79 MB of space. This is a very little amount.

It cannot be removed.

You cannot delete Apple Maps. Likely because of fundamental system-wide integration that requires handling mapping.

Apple Maps integrates with other apps, such as Calendar to provide travel time estimates.

You always have the option to remove it from the Dock if you want.

The space the app uses is trivial.
