Remove apps from iPad
You can easily remove apps from your iPad. If you change your mind, you can download the apps again later.
Remove apps
Do any of the following:
Remove an app from the Home Screen: Touch and hold the app on the Home Screen, tap Remove App, then tap Remove from Home Screen to keep it in App Library, or tap Delete App to delete it from iPad.
Delete an app from App Library and Home Screen: Touch and hold the app in App Library, tap Delete App, then tap Delete. (See Find your apps in App Library on iPad.)
If you change your mind, you can redownload apps you’ve deleted.
In addition to deleting third-party apps, you can delete the following built-in Apple apps that came with your iPad:
Contacts (Contact information remains available through Messages, Mail, FaceTime, and other apps. To remove a contact, you must restore Contacts.)
Find My (Removing this app doesn’t turn off location sharing or Find My for your device—it just removes the ability to view locations in the Find My app on that device.)
Note: When you delete a built-in app from your Home Screen, you also delete any related user data and configuration files. Removing built-in apps from your Home Screen can affect other system functionality. See the Apple Support article Delete built-in Apple apps on your iOS 12, iOS 13, or iPadOS device or Apple Watch.
