Tip of the Week: Managing Hefty iPad Apps Want to see which apps on your iPad are hogging too much space, and then throw a few off the tablet to make room for more? On the Home screen, tap the Settings icon and then tap General on the Settings screen. On the General screen, tap Usage to see a list of the iPad's apps and the space each one uses. To delete an app right there, tap its name in the list and tap Delete App on the next screen.
