With iOS 12 there is now this really annoying iMessage app bar. I have tried to turn off all but photos... but given the camera already as part of messages, I don’t need a icon in the bar. So how do I get rid of the annoying bar which takes up space!
iMac, iOS 7.1.2, Server 3.1.2
The solution is in the support document linked above by Becky_s22. For your convenience I will copy and paste again here.
Delete iMessage apps
to start a new message. Or go to an existing conversation.
.Becky, this did not answer my question nor Daryl’s I don’t think.
As you can see in the screenshot, we want to get rid of that entire section below the typing bar section. Like Daryl said, it just takes up space and I have no intentions of ever using it.
You cannot delete those two. You need the Photos icon to be able to access your photo library on the phone, and the App Store to access other app choices if you change your mind. To get it off the screen, tap on the grey App Store icon next to the camera icon, and it will disappear until the next time you open a message and start to type.
I appreciate the screenshot, but it will not let me delete the App Store or photos app. Try for yourself? Or it could be an issue with my iPhone.
I appreciate the screenshot but it won’t let me delete the App Store not the photos app. Not sure iif it is just my iPhone or not.
