Hi Bonnie.

The answer will depend a bit on what sort of phone you have.

If you're on an iPhone or iPad, you generally hold your finger down on the icon for the app for a couple of seconds, and all the icons on the screen will start to jiggle a bit, and each will have a small 'X' near their top. If you then touch the 'X' on the icon of the app you want to get rid of, it'll be deleted from the phone. (There are some 'native' ones from Apple that they won't let you delete without doing a lot more work).

If you're on Android, the Google instructions for app deletion are here
Uninstall disable and delete apps


(a video on iOS removal is here
How to delete any app from your iPhone or iPad )

If you're on a Windows Phone, start here

That should cover most smart phones, at least that I see in a given week.
Hoping this helps, and Happy Holidays!

How can i get youtube to load on my coby 4.0 inhernet tablet

I am not familiar with that specific tablet, but if you have the Youtube app, and it just will not open, uninstall it, restart your device, then re-install the app. A lot of times updates, either to the app itself, the tablet software, or Android, can create slight incompatibilities in an app. A simple uninstall/re-install will often fix it. How to uninstall depends on your current software. On some of my Android devices I can press and hold the app icon which will open a little "App info" balloon. Tap it, and you will have an uninstall option. Otherwise you may need to go into Settings. If your Settings screen has tabs across the top, choose General. Look for something like Applications or App Info. Open that and scroll down to the app, tap it, and you will have an option to uninstall.

How do I delete all my google apps

You can remove apps from your device if you don't want them anymore or you need to clear memory space. If you uninstall an app you paid for, you can reinstall it later without buying it again.
Uninstall or disable apps
  1. Open your device's Settings app .
  2. Tap Apps or Application manager.
  3. Tap the app you want to uninstall. You may need to scroll to find the app.
  4. Tap Uninstall or Disable.
Uninstall vs. disable There are two ways to remove apps depending on whether you downloaded the app or if it came preinstalled on your device:
  1. Uninstall downloaded apps: If you downloaded an app from Google Play, you can completely remove it from your device.
  2. Disable preinstalled apps: Some apps come preinstalled on your device. You can disable these apps, but you can't remove them completely. After an app has been disabled, it will be hidden on your device.
Note: Disabling a system app may cause other apps to misbehave and will delete your associated data for that app.

How do you delete Downloaded Aps

Depends on what phone you have. To uninstall an app on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod, just press and hold the app until it jiggles and than hit the x in the upper left hand corner. To delete an app off of iTunes, click apps, click the app icon you wish to delete, and than click edit, and finally delete.
To delete an app off of android, go to your menu in the upper right hand corner, tap settings, go to applications, and finally manage applications. Select the app you wish to delete and hit uninstall.
