Davy: - check for 32-bit apps by going to Settings --> General --> About --> Applications which will list the 32-bit apps if you have any installed.
Under "Applications" it says "279". I'm fished.
Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.
CYaBro: I must have none as I can't tap on Applications at all.you likely have an iPhone 5c which is 32bit. Sell it asap.

Not true, my iPhone 7 also does nothing when I tap on Applications.
What annoys me is that some app developers may have taken advantage of this.... by selling the 32bit version, now they are selling the 64bit version as a version 2 of the software, so you have to pay again.
The only affected app on my phone is the Symptom Checker app from Healthline.
I don't ever seem to get anything worse than a common cold, so I just deleted it!
Starscream122:The function was momentarily available after removing three 32bit apps on my phone but I see now it's not a menu.

PhantomNVD: Yep, I see three apps I forgot I even had and haven’t used at all since I upgraded my phone in Feb this year... no worries :)
*edit - and trying to open one on the latest IOS11 beta says “the developer of this app needs to update it to work on IOS11”
I wonder if then app creator gets a ping for each person who tries to use their app and they wait for a ‘critical number’ before bothering to do so? Especially for paid apps... they already have your money anyway?
Goodreader is a classic example . . . was not cheap.
So, a while back they released goodreader 2, which is equal to the first for what I used it for.
So, now goodreader1 is obsolete I am forced to shell out for goodreader2!!!
Why can't they just recompile goodreader1 into a 64bit executable?
Starscream122: Not true, my iPhone 7 also does nothing when I tap on Applications.
If it's an expandable menu then it'll list your 32-bit apps. If it's not tappable then all your apps are 64-bit.
Not the most intuitive user interface...

Plus Apple don't allow or cater for paid upgrades
