Large App-etite

Feeling overweight after Thanksgiving? Maybe that's how your phone feels all the time.

It might be time to delete some apps. Apps take up room in your phone, even if you don't use them.

On iPhones or Android phones, long press (tap and hold), any app until all the app icons jiggle or until you see a menu with an option to tap "Edit Home Screen" or "Delete".

Unless your phone is very low on storage space, I recommend only deleting those apps that you added but no longer use. If possible, leave the apps that came with the phone.

With its lighter load, your phone may run more efficiently, you'll be able to find the icons you are looking for faster, and you'll have more room for new apps.

For people, though, it's still diet and exercise!
