Apple iPod touch iOS 4.3 - Manual (Page 153)

Deleting Apps
You can delete apps you install from the App Store. If you delete an app, data
associated with the app is no longer available to iPod touch, unless you reinstall the
app and restore its data from a backup.
You can reinstall an app and restore its data as long as you backed up iPod touch with
iTunes on your computer. (If you try to delete an app that hasn’t been backed up to
your computer, an alert appears.) To retrieve the app data, you must restore iPod touch
from a backup containing the data. See “Restoring from a Backup” on page 217.
Delete an App Store app:
1 Touch and hold any app icon on the Home screen, until the icons start to jiggle.
2 Tap in the corner of the app you want to delete.
3 Tap Delete, then press the Home button.
If you don’t see on the app icon, either the app wasn’t purchased from the
App Store or deleting apps has been restricted. See “Restrictions” on page 161.
When you delete an app, its data is no longer accessible through the iPod touch user
interface, but it isn’t erased from iPod touch. For information about erasing all content
and settings, see “Erase All Content and Settings” on page 166.
Replace a deleted app:
 On iPod touch: Purchase the app again (you won’t be charged).
 In iTunes: Connect iPod touch to your computer, select iPod touch in the Devices list,
click Apps and select the checkbox next to the app, then click Apply.
Writing Reviews
You can write and submit your own app reviews directly on iPod touch.
Write a review:
1 Tap Ratings near the bottom of the Info screen.
2 On the Reviews screen, tap “Write a Review.”
3 Select the number of stars (1–5) for your rating of the app, and enter your nickname,
a title for the review, and optional review comments. If you’ve written reviews
before, the nickname field is already filled in. Otherwise, you’re asked to create a
reviewer nickname.
4 Tap Send.
You must be signed in to your Apple account and have downloaded the item in order
to submit reviews.
