So I made a similar argument with spending time deleting email in that it might not be worth your time. I have 134 apps in my iTunes Mobile Applications folder which consume about 1.6GB of space. Nothing to sneeze at but is it worth freeing up the space only to have the stuff come back again? If I'm tight enough on disk space that 1.6GB matters then maybe I need to think about upgrading my hard drive. I did notice that there were multiple copies of a few apps which I cleaned out. For example, I had two copies of HeyTell and I deleted the older one. Not sure if that will mess things up but I suspect not and didn't see a reason to keep older versions.

Hi,

I like the app saved on my computer.  This is because I always update apps from 
my phone then check its accessibility after every update.  If the update breaks 
accessibility, I can delete it, and just sync the old version back on my phone 
via iTunes.  If you don't have a backup saved on your computer, you can not do 
this.  You will just have to hope the developers of the app decide to fix 
accessibility in a future update.

Hey everyone, I'm wondering what everyone thinks of keeping their apps backed 
up in itunes. Do most of you do this? The reason I ask is, since you can 
redownload them if needed by going to the purchased tab in the app store, I've 
thought about deleting them from my computers and freeing up several GB of disk 
space.
