Why does apple insist on forcing me to download applications I will NEVER use (Apple watch, Apple health)? or make changes to the sounds for the phone (remove the sound when I send a text)? I would fix the grammar above but this site doesn't work correctly on the iphone.
iPhone 6, iOS 8.2
Instead of hijacking this thread you really should start your own thread for your problem.
This is my last iphone too. Iphone 6 gold 62g but this is it. I am a hardcore apple fan but this is gone too far. Galaxy 6 is a superior, more innovative and cheaper phone. I don't want those stupid apps of healthcare, iwatch or stocks. Bye bye iphone. I guess you are going to be more than welcome in third world countries.
are you serious? Millions of apple watch users?
Yes and yes.

Learn to read! Millions of iPhone Users with the Apple Watch App that are not here complaining. Although, yes, there will most likely be millions of Apple Watches sold in the future, but that was not my comment. So if you are going to misread and whinge, do it in the Android Forums which is where you said you were heading. Sad for you that Android also have System Apps that cannot be removed.

technically I don't have enough memory to update/upgrade my iphone, I didn't upgrade, it simply appeared after a restart. So now I have
even less storage, which I can't delete to enable me to update!
It doesn't update by itself unless you have set auto updates. It takes up that small a space that it is barely noticeable. If you are unhappy then tell Apple.

iOS 8.3, which includes the Apple Watch app, takes up less space than iOS 8.2, which didn't.
From what everyone has postes this app is embedded now and you cannot uninstall the app. It is typical Apple dictating what and what should not be on my phone.
Wish I had better news for you.

Yes, it is. And I'm fine with that.

Ummmmm perhaps that is because they make and own the system? or should they cater to a half dozen whingers?

I came here to try to figure out how to delete the Apple bloatware that is becoming increasingly frustrating and, rather than an answer, I see what appears to be local admins verbally abusing people looking for help with an issue.
To those who offered useful advice - Thank you
To those who want to complain about everyone complaining - If it bothers you so much, unsubscribe from the thread or lock it so no one else can reply. Your personal attacks add no value and only caused me to spend three times as long reviewing the content of this thread.
To those who did both - Read both comments above, in the order they are presented.
As far as violating the Terms of Use go (reference comments above) this site, ironically, doesn't work properly in Safari, so I couldn't get past the seventh line.

It works fine in Safari for me (and lots to other people).
No one here can help you do what you want.
Submit your feedback to Apple requesting such a feature here:
Meanwhile, move the apps that offend you to a folder and move it to the last page. At least you won't have to look at it. I do that with Mail.
1 Create a folder with the app you don't want
2. Drop the app on the second page
3. Drag the app to the third page but don't let go
4. Press the home button
5 The app should fly off to nowhere
the only problem is it will return if your phone is turned off and on again.
hope this helped
Remove Apple watch app
