Deleting apps is slightly different in iOS 13 than in previous versions. However, it is not a very big change. These are the two ways to clear applications on your iPhone in iOS 13.

iOS 13 is officially available. After downloading you will find out that there are some changes. One of those changes is the way you can remove apps. Above you can read how to delete apps in iOS 13.
You can delete as many apps as you want. There is also a second way to throw away applications in iOS 13. This method works much the same. Tap the app you want to remove, but hold for about 5 seconds. The Sort menu should appear briefly, but disappear immediately. After this, the icons start to move and you can remove applications.

Save storage space
In addition to a different way of removing apps, iOS 13 will also help you with which programs you could delete. The software pays attention to how often you use an app. In the update screen of the App Store you can therefore see when apps were last used, with the most recent applications at the top. At the bottom of the list are apps that you rarely or never use. With a simple swipe to the left you can permanently remove these programs.
