Remove Apps
As you download more apps—and I predict you will—you’re going to find that some don’t hold the allure they once did, or you’ll discover a new app that does something better than the first one you downloaded. You can remove the app on the iPad itself or disable it from syncing within iTunes.
Note
The original apps that ship with the iPad cannot be removed. If they’re in your way, consider moving them to another Home screen (described in “Customize the Home Screen,” coming up).
On the iPad
1. Locate the app you want to remove on the Home screen, and then touch and hold its icon for a second. All of the apps begin to shake, and an X button appears on the app’s icon.
2. Tap the X button.
3. Tap the Delete button in the confirmation dialog that appears (Figure 2.5).
