As a Twitter user points out, who was attempting to update to beta 2 of iOS 9, the company is introducing a new feature wherein it will allow users to temporarily delete an app and free up some space to get the desired software update. Once the updation process is over, the app automatically installs itself, retaining all the previous data.

— Kaleb Butt (@Kaleb_Butt) June 23, 2015 While it may seem like a tiny feature, it could come in very handy for users. The application of this new feature will be more significant to users who sport less storage-sized iOS devices, like the 8 GB edition of iPhone 4s, or even the 16GB variant of any iPhone and iPad, as well as similar iPods. The company received a lot of criticism from users who were extremely disappointed by the significant storage space the new update required to make their device fit to receive it. It also slowed down the adoption rate of iOS 8, which was substantially slower than iOS 7 and even iOS 6.
