Removing updated apps from updates in App Store

So I updated to iOS7, and everything went well. I went in and updated my apps by clicking in the App Store app, and they all updated fine. Now, those same apps are still showing in the Updates section, but instead of saying "Update" they say "Open". I realize they have updated, but is there a way to remove them from showing in the updates section after they have actually updated?


Also, is there a way to hide purchased apps that have been deleted from my iPhone from showing in my purchased section?

iPhone 5, iOS 7

Apps that you have purchased will always remain in the purchased app area. This allows you to download them again at no charge should you want to. You cannot delete items from the previously purchased tab.


I think Apps that have updated will disappear the next day. Most of us have turned on auto app updates. Having the app remain in the update pane lets us know which apps got an update.
