Is it possible to not have apps saved in your iTunes library?
I have tonnes of apps on my iPhone, but why do they have to be on my laptop's iTunes library? It's not as if I can use the apps on my laptop!
If I just delete all my apps in iTunes, will they be removed from my phone? Does the app need to even be in my library?
If not, how would I be able to stop iTunes from automatically downloading them and waste all of my memory?
Probably the iCloud
The reason for the apps being stored on your iTunes library is so if you need to wipe your iPhone you would have a backup. The apps would restore on your phone with all of the data in them. If you don't want to back up to the iTunes library on your computer, turn on the iCloud backup on your phone. This will backup everything directly to the cloud, bypassing your computer.
To turn on iCloud, go to
Settings---> iCloud---> (make sure you are signed in with your Apple ID) --->Storage and Backup--->iCloud Backup ON--->
When you turn this on, your iPhone will automatically backup to the iCloud whenever your iPhone is plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi.
Hope this helps!
- Why are all the iphone apps I have ever downloaded saved on my macbook pro? There's 60GB of iphone apps stored on my macbook pro. It is taking up a lot of space and i was wondering if that is normal or something is wrong. Would it be alright if I deleted all of it and just backed up my phone to the cloud?

- Is it possible to only have the lcd in your iPhone broken, and not the screen. I have am I-phone 5C? Yesterday I dropped my iPhone 5C, it didn't crack, but the far right side doesn't react if I press a button on that side. It also glitches, if IIm on a page and scroll down it will go scroll right back up to the top. Lastly, the lock screen doesn't react at all for about 15 seconds.
