i used to keep all of them for a very long time. making folder after folder thinking i had to keep them just in case i might need to use one

now, i only keep what i need and use consistently. if i end up needing one i have used in the past i just redownload it from the app store and delete again

I don't have a fixed time period.

I don't have a time limit, but I do have a space limit. I refuse to have more than four pages and only have four folders, for stuff I know I want but also won't use often (Games, Video Apps, Utilities, Music Apps). If I'm going to have another app, I force myself to delete one--after trying a few different schemes to keep things organized, this is the one that worked for me. Once I hit five pages I never go to that last one...

I never thought about that but I am a game freak and that's where my app overload comes in

I just shove the unused apps beyond the 2nd page and forget about them

This week, I had to delete an app because I used it too much. I installed Tiny Tower and I instantly became addicted. For three days, I was playing all the time, even at work. After three days, I decided that I was playing too frequently and I had to delete the game. What an incredible game!

I am new to my iPhone (a BB convert) and don't have that many apps yet, but have already deleted a few that I couldn't see using more than once or twice if at all. If it looks useful I like to give an app at least two weeks to see if it is.

i filter my apps almost every week

I delete unused apps whenever I find myself scrolling through 5 screens to get to the app I just downloaded.

When I had my 16gb iPhone and was running close to my limit I would periodically delete apps/pics/songs. With the 32gb I don't need to worry about deleting anything anymore. I have more than enough space now and it's not a priority.

Very interesting. How long have you had the 32gb? Do you think you'll eventually run out of space?

I've had the 32gb versions 4/4s since December. I'm about half full. If I really wanted to I could have stayed with the 16gb version and managed my space but upgrading to the 32gb gives me more peace of mind and also has a better resale value down the road.

less than 10 minutes

64GB version so I have tons of space, but most of my apps are casual games I can start/stop. I'm always looking for something to try and if I don't like it, it's gone before I get home and sync.

Ages I like to keep them despite I don?t use them
