Q: Swipe-hide does not exist in APP STORE iOS 6.1.4.
There is an app called snapchat that I need to remove from my child's phone. It is a chat client that deletes sent messages after 10 seconds, and needs to be removed in order to protect my child. Evidently there is no way to undo purchase of a free app, but there is a way to "hide" the purchase so that it cannot be installed. I was referred to this article by iTunes support to "hide" the app from the list of installable apps in the app store, but the article has the following problems:
- there is no "purchased" button at the bottom of the app store in iOS.
- when reviewing installable apps on the phone, swiping has no fuction.
It appears that this article, as well as iTunes support, is misinformed.
Hopefully am missing something, please help.
iPhone 5, iOS 6.1.4
