asked on ITunes 112 and IOS 9, cleaning up Apps ?
I went through my iTunes library and deleted all the apps that I don't want to use, synced my iphone, but the apps are still on my iphone. Is there a way to get the iphone to update based on what is in the iTunes library?
Before I tried I backed up the phone and made sure it was synced up. I am just looking for a easy way to clean up the apps so I don't have to do it on each device and in iTunes. I have a iphone and a ipad. Is the only way to do this to delete it from the device first and then sync it with iTunes? It seems like there should be a easier way to do this. I found some articles but they don't apply to ios 9.

I delete Apps on the iPhone and they do not return when I sync to iTunes. iTunes does not do a good job of updating Apps on an iPhone. It broke some years ago. Delete the Apps on your iPhone and that works. I have done it this way.

Thanks for the info. So there isn't a easy way with IOS 9 to also clean them up in iTunes. Common Apple, this should be a basic function.
I have been using iPhones and iTunes for years now and do not see what you want. I just delete Apps as I go.

Thanks, makes sense. I will also look into the MDM software and see if that will work.
