“Screen after screen, folder after folder, app after app, the iPhone has become the new enabler for the mobile hoarder,” Tom Kaneshige writes for CIO. For the New Year, though, many iPhone addicts have vowed to break or at least temper this fixation.”
Kaneshige writes, “If you’re looking for a fresh start, you can begin by deleting these 10 apps.””
“First, a disclaimer: This list of apps to delete isn’t for everyone. You might not think you have a problem. You might prefer life in the digital world rather than the real one,” Kaneshige writes. “Others, though, are getting a little tired of how the phone has highjacked society. More than a few have made a New Year’s resolution to wean themselves off of their iPhone addiction. If you’re ready to take a stand, this list is for you.”
10 popular iPhone apps you should delete:
• Facebook
• Facebook Messenger
• Uber
• Twitter
• Groupon
• Office Apps
• Foursquare (Woz is going to be pissed over this suggestion – MDN Ed.)
• Louis Vuitton et al.
• Dropbox
• Gaming apps
