Have you had an iPhone for years? Then you have probably downloaded some apps. But do you remember what your very first app was? This is how you find out!
Here’s how to find the first app you ever downloaded on your iPhone
Your iPhone is probably full of apps that you use every day. But of course there are also a few programs that you installed briefly and then forgot about.
But have you ever wondered what the very first app you ever downloaded to your iPhone was? Secretly, it is surprisingly fun to look for it again. Well jam until you find out how many apps you can’t use anymore. Even if you once had to pay for it.
Or you come across an old app in the list that you once thought was great, but have completely lost track of. We must make a comment, because an old app may have completely disappeared and no longer appears in your list. Unfortunately there is nothing more that can be done about that.
To find the first app you downloaded, follow the steps below.
Here’s how to find the first app on your iPhone
- Open the App Store on your iPhone;
- Tap your icon at the top right;
- Tap ‘Apps’ and choose ‘My app’;
- Choose the ‘All’ option;
- You will be shown the list of all your apps that you have ever downloaded;
- Scroll all the way to
With some of the apps you will see a blue icon to the right of the name. This is a blue cloud with an arrow. You can still download and use these apps again on your current iPhone. Is there nothing next to the name? Then unfortunately the app is no longer available.
