You can save some space on your iPad by “offloading” apps. What this means is that the actual program is deleted, but NOT your data. What’s left is a note that the iPad leaves for itself telling it what app and where to fetch it the next time you need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again – NONE of your data is affected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This opens up room on your iPad for other content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple offers two ways to offload apps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Automatically.<\/strong> Visit Settings > General > iTunes & App Stores<\/em>.\n Offload Unused Apps is enabled by default, although you can turn it off\n if you find this behavior confusing or inconvenient. iOS doesn\u2019t warn \nyou when it offloads apps to increase storage, so you may try to use an \napp you haven\u2019t touched in a while, only to find that it\u2019s been \noffloaded. This may be a problem if you don\u2019t have affordable or \nsufficient bandwidth to download it on the spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manually.<\/em><\/strong> Open Settings > General > iPhone\/iPad Storage<\/em>,\n and then swipe down to find apps you want to offload. Tap the app and \nthen tap Offload App. iOS explains what that means, and you have to tap \nOffload App again in a pop-up menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next time you want to use \nan app that\u2019s been offloaded, you can simply tap it and it will be \ndownloaded and reconnected to its cached data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
