Sadam,

 What please is app slicing?

And since when could you hide apps in itunes to have that then flow through to 
the app store to get rid of the apps you no longer want / require?

I've got a lot of apps in the app store I no longer want but haven't yet been 
able to get rid of.

Cheers,


Simon f

With app slicing in iOS 9, you can’t transfer apps from your phone to iTunes 
any more.  You can only go one way: from iTunes to phone (iTunes thins the apps 
on transfer).  You’ll waste bandwidth using iTunes if you only have one device. 
 You can use OS X Server to cache content if you have multiple devices, and 
save more bandwidth than you could with iTunes, albeit at the expense of having 
to set up a server.

Even though it’s a nuisance doing your re-installations, I suggest you begin 
managing your hidden purchases list in iTunes.  Open the Purchased page, go to 
Apps, and press the Hide button for every app you don’t want.  Now, the only 
apps that appear in the iOS App Store app are those you want, which you can 
download and delete at your leisure.  You loose the ability to reinstall apps 
Apple have dropped from the store, but in all my time there has only ever been 
one such app, and it was buggy.
