I tried to uninstall a bunch of apps a while ago, but since my iPad also got hooked up, the apps keep getting redownloaded and -installed, after I install it in either device. I haven't looked into fixing it, but I have way too many apps for my own good anyway. But even so, I'd still have a lot of apps on my phone. That's why I'd like to be able to hide them somehow, for instance by tagging them and only make them appear, if I want something in Games or such. As it is, I have one or two screens full of games.
