While most will argue that Apple Watch apps are useless, some users still find really good value in them. Especially if you want to go out without the need of your iPhone. However, some people just don’t want apps on their Watch, and that’s fine too. It’s easy to delete Apple Watch apps.
Follow along to learn how…
How to delete Apple Watch apps
On iPhone
