You can "delete" many default apps on recent versions of iOS. (It doesn't actually delete them, it just hides them — the same as disabling an app on Android).

- gggvvff 9y agoUntrue, if you reinstall them they will be redownloaded from the App Store. So it’s likely they’re actually deleted. Apple do love pointless animations so you might be right though.

- firloop 9y agoThe removed apps are deleted, not just hidden. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208094 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208094

- aroman 9y agoI don't think that document is entirely accurate. The apps "re-download" immediately, suggesting (to me at least) that they are still on-disk, somewhere. I believe that they delete associated user-data, though. EDIT: Apparently things are different in iOS 11? Huh. TIL — will have to try it out!
