the docs i read were talking about the apps taking space and having to redownload from 'the cloud', so i think they actually get uninstalled

cremnob posted:saw some tweets saying it doesnt actually uninstall them, its kinda like uninstalling internet explorer in windows who wrote these tweets? because according to the apple support doc they do get fully deleted and must be redownloaded it's true that some of them have special integration but apple seems to have decided that doesn't matter so deleting the apps will break those system-wide services (carplay, weather and stock widgets, watch pairing). the only exception on that page is contacts which is was apparently a shell over an OS-level database all along
