Apps reinstalling themselves

Hello, I am having apps reinstalling themselves after being offloaded. My phone is 128 GB and only 66,7 GB are being used. Every day I offload the same apps without previously opening (downloading) them and I am getting frustrated. Could you please help me stop themselves from reinstalling randomly? Thank you!

Hello Relma856,


Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. We'd love to provide you with a few steps that may help resolve the issue that you're having with your offloaded apps reinstalling:


Restart your iPhone

1. Press and hold either volume button and the side button until the power-off slider appears.
The volume button is located on the left side of the device, and the side button is located on the right
2. Drag the slider, then wait 30 seconds for your device to turn off. If your device is frozen or unresponsive, force restart your device.

3. To turn your device back on, press and hold the side button (on the right side of your iPhone) until you see the Apple logo.


Update iOS on iPhone (Be sure to secure your data with a backup before proceeding).


Let us know if this helps.

Cheers!
