We use our iPhones for almost everything nowadays. It's become our go-to way to navigate through different cities and to stay connected with friends and family on the go. But, all of these amazing features can really take a toll on your iPhone, especially when it comes to your storage and battery life. In order to preserve your battery and free up some storage, experts say that you should delete the Facebook mobile app, Uber app, Waze app, and WhatsApp Messenger.

Facebook
The one app that you should delete ASAP is the Facebook app. Experts say that deleting this app could save you at least 15% battery life. But, don't worry, you can still access Facebook using Safari, which doesn't leave the same impact on your battery.
Uber
Uber gets most of its features from its location tracking technology, which has been proven to take a big toll on your iPhone's battery. While this app is a convenient way to get around, it's not worth it to lose all of your iPhone battery when you're not even using the app.
Waze
Like Uber, Waze is tracking your location all of the time. And, it wasn't until recently that users were able to turn off this battery-draining feature on the app. If you don't use Waze that much, experts say that you should just delete it.
WhatsApp Messenger
WhatsApp is an excellent way to stay in touch with your friends and family that are abroad, but the app is also notorious for draining your battery and taking up your storage. If downloaded, this app automatically runs when you turn on your iPhone. And, all of those pictures and videos you're sending your friends and family through the app are secretly taking up your storage. If you're not using this app frequently, it should definitely be deleted.
