Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Hi,
I was wondering if there is anyway to remove ibooks, podcasts and tips app from my ipod touch/ipad. After doing the last update these are all on there and cannot see anyway to remove them, they take up a lot of memory and we don't use them.
iPod touch, iOS 8.1.2
What happens when touch and hold an app? They all should start to wiggle and ones that can be deleted will have a circled X in a corner. Tap the X to delete that app. There can be a Restriction set that prevent deleting apps. Settings>General>Restrictions

Have tried touch and hold to remove the app but these do not have a circled X in the corner to be able to delete. I have also just checked my Restrictions settings and it is off.

I just checked. Those apps can't be deleted. The iBooks and Podcasts app take very little storage unless you have "books" in the iBooks app or podcasts in the Podcasts app.. You can delete podcasts and books from those apps.

Those are system Apps, part of the iOS. You cannot remove or install System Apps. They take up very little room and can be moved to a screen page behind regularly used Apps.
