(I think it should be, though.) Settings > scrolling down past Apple settings will show you a list, but I believe it's only apps that have permission requests built-in, or something exposed for the settings app I don't believe it's everything. Settings > Cellular will show you a list, but I don't know if it's complete. I don't know if there's an easy way to get a complete, alphabetical list of all 3rd-party applications installed on your device. you can sort that list alphabetically using the Sort drop-down toward the upper-right. From there just click on the cloud with the down arrow in the corner of the icon for each app you want to re-download. From the Apps section of iTunes, if you go to the App Store tab, there is a Purchased link on the right-hand side a few items down. Each one would need to be re-downloaded through iTunes. There is no automatic way to "restore" all apps that you want into your iTunes library.

The question is about how to purge unnecessary Mobile Applications from the Mac.Īpparently (based on a comment on my answer in the question you linked), syncing a device with iTunes no longer transfers purchased apps from the device to the computer. Note: The question is not about how to delete Mobile applications (this can be done by right-clicking the apps in the roll-down App view in iTunes, but not under the App tab under the iOS device view). If so, is that done by backing up the application from the device, or downloading it onto the computer from the iTunes "app" store – thereby not backing up the app data itself (assumingly, this is something that is done within the iOS device backup in iTunes, not in the App tab)? What is the best way to delete all the applications and then restore them? If I delete them in iTunes, will syncing my iOS devices recreate the currently used applications again? I do not care about keeping backups of apps I don't actively use – and I don't keep on the devices any old apps withdrawn from the App store – so I would like to delete everything and then restore apps that I currently use on my iOS devices.
I know that iOS apps that are still available in the App Store can be re-downloaded if they've once been purchased (free or not), but that withdrawn apps can only be restored from the aforementioned iTunes library. These applications are visible in the main roll-down menu in iTunes 12.5.1 under Apps, and on the macOS hard drive in ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Mobile Applications as. I have many gigabytes of old iOS applications on the computer, which originate from my iPhone/iPad that are synced to the computer.
