4 Pre-Installed Apps To Delete From Your iPhone Because They’re Taking Up Storage & Slowing Down Your Device

Storage and a speedier device: these are two must-have features on any iPhone, but also features that can be hard to come by. It isn’t uncommon to realize a few months or years after purchasing your costly phone that it’s not running at the same capacity as it usually does. When you check your storage space capabilities in Settings, you may notice a few of the usual suspects (you know who they are: social media, streaming apps, and anything with GPS) are taking up the majority of your space.

When your storage space is low, everything suffers. Your phone runs at a snail’s pace and you can no longer take as many photos and videos or save as many media files as you’d like. There is no one easy solution to solve your storage issues, but relief begins when you start deleting a few of your apps.

Since none of us get excited about deleting our favorite apps, it can be helpful to look at pre-installed apps first and see where you can trim some of the excess storage-stealing ones. Here are four you may want to consider deleting for more storage and a faster phone.
