Is there a way to un-update an app?

I like the older version better, the newer version crashes immediately upon opening it. What the **** is the point of updating something if it's going to make it non-usable?!

Actually, if you go to the iTunes folder:

<path to iTunes Folder>->ITunes->iTunes Media->Mobile Applications->

Previous Mobile Applications

You will find all versions of all downloaded apps.

At least they are there for me. For instance, I have 10

versions in that folder from 1.1.3 thru 2.1.3.


Whether you could just remove the app from the Mobile Applications

and replace it with the older version and remove it from the phone and then

sync the phone would work I don't know.


Don't know why it shouldn't, otherwise why keep all the old versions?
