I mean, on their own, many of the core apps probably don’t bring much revenue to Apple. I can understand their reluctance to allow uninstalling the App Store, but what do they gain by preventing someone from uninstalling the Camera, for instance? Those who want to do so will use an alternative app anyway.
- _rs 2y agoBecause you'll have users who do it by accident and lose basic hardware functionality of their device without knowing how to fix it
- ronsor 2y agoI don't know why this is downvoted. There are definitely a ton of users who will accidentally delete the camera and then complain their phone is broken, wasting everyone's time.
- kergonath 2y agoPeople have already apps they can delete. And when they do it by mistake, they just go to the App Store to download it again, wasting nobody’s time. Why would it be any different? There’s just need to be a button in the settings if the App Store itself is deleted.

- thimabi 2y agoYou’re right, I forgot about that.
