I was able to delete two apps that had the same problem: the app had a blank icon and no name from an update that failed to install, then by forcing the update from the store the icon appears, but the name never appears, and trying to delete the apps just show an alert that says: Deleting "" will also delete all of its data.


The solution for me that worked was to go into Setting » General » Usage » Manage Storage, from there I could find two rows without name, open them and pressed "Delete App". After a while the apps were uninstalled.
