How to Disable Automatic Offloading of Apps on iPhones

Posted on 24/08/202214/12/2023 Christian By Christian No Comments on How to Disable Automatic Offloading of Apps on iPhones

Learn how to disable automatic Offloading of Apps on your iPhone or iPad. While iOS 11 introduced the convenient feature of offloading unused apps to free up storage space, you might prefer to have more control over this process. By default, your device automatically offloads unused apps, removing the app itself but retaining its data and settings. Kindly look at some of these guides: How to start an application automatically on Mac, and how to fix unable to access microphone on Zoom,

In summary, when unused apps are offloaded, it removes the app without deleting the app’s data including login credentials.

Here are some other interesting guides: Turn off calls from iPhone: How to unlink FaceTime from Mac, how to grant or deny Microphone access on Mac, and How to offload individual Apps on iPhone.
