How to completely delete an app from your iPhone?

I downloaded a few apps that IIm not proud of. (Tinder, a free texting app, etc) and I hate how if you search them in the App Store it shows the cloud where you would download it. Showing you have downloaded it before. Is there a way you can make your phone forget you downloaded it? So it says "get" again instead of a picture of a cloud. Or if it's even possible.

What you don't realize is that once you download an app, it's tied to your Apple account for ever. You can remove the app from your phone and never install it again, but it will still show up in your purchases (in iTunes).

The only way that you could get rid of this is to create a new Apple ID and sign into it onto your iPhone.

  • Will upgrading iPhone 4 to iOS 6 completely delete jailbreak? I know it will get rid of jailbreak, which I don't mind at all. However, I have read through different forums that sometimes the jailbreak is never completely deleted because some files still remain in phone. I would not want that to be the case (I might as well not upgrade, I don't want those files possibly causing any performance problems). So, what say you? I want to try iOS 6 on my iPhone 4.
  • Why won't my iPhone 4s let me delete the contacts completely? I have deleted the contact but when I go and send a new text their name still pops up, but when you press the name to text them the number comes up. For example if the name comes up "Sally" and you tap it it'll show up as "(123)456-7890." But I want to delete the contact completely! How? I have already deleted their text as well. But there number still pops up.
  • When you delete photos from your Photo Stream does it delete from your Camera Roll? Hi, I'm running out of storage on my phone so I thought the best thing to do would be to delete some photos, and obviously my photo stream folder uses up tons of space, but when I delete photos from the photo stream do they delete from camera roll too? Or vice versa? Obviously I'm using Apple (iPhone 5C) please answer quickly and thanks x
  • My IPhone works completely fine sometimes but a lot of times I can't use it and it's completely unresponsive to my touch? I scheduled an appointment to fix my very cracked screen and I was just wondering if this will fix my problem for sure or is there something else that may be causeing the screen to be unresponsive?
