Unable to delete Grey/ Ghost apps on IOS 7

[xtemujin]

I've just upgraded my iPhone 4 to IOS 7.

Having the issues of not being able to delete grey/ ghost apps.

Some of this apps are legacy and now not available in itunes for updates.

Tried the restrictions and it does not work.

If you don't mind, how's the performance of iOS 7 on iPhone 4? Is it smooth and not laggy?

Quite ok with IPhone 4 but don't really liked the new simple and plain interface of IOS 7.

HTH.

so you are saying you can see the app icons but cannot delete by tapping on the x?

Try this method. It worked on mine as well:

"This will solve your and the latests problem, so I had the same.
I went to the App Store, Updates and Purchased menu. Look for the original stucked app and redownload it. Then will disappear and now you can download again and use."

chehjin,

Yes can see the app and the X but it cannot be deleted.

The grey app does not appear in the setting and on iTunes it will show an install tab.

deep3lue,

Some of the apps are now not available for download.

Cheers.
