My Carrier: Verizon

Trying to remove an application that is on my device but not in my applications list.

I am a new user of a BB Curve 8330 I just got in September from Verizon.  I do have several apps but there is 1 specific one that is confusing me.  I downloaded UberTwitter about 2 weeks ago.  I can send and receive tweets without a problem, but I had read where it takes up a tremendous amount of memory and drains your battery quickly because it refreshes so frequently.  Since I only check it once in a while I figured I'd delete it.  Problem is, it is nowhere to be found in my Applications List.  Everthing else is there - Facebook, BBC Mobile, Sky Sports, ESPN Soccernet, The Telegraph and Ebay along with all the other stuff that comes on the phone. No problems with any of them.  Just Uber Twitter.  How am I going to delete this if I can't find it?

Re: Trying to remove an application that is on my device but not in my applications list.

It will drain your battery if you have it constantly running in the background.  I turned that off (in the UT options).  Turn off the BB notifications and uncheck move to background on close.  

 

If it's not in your application list on your phone, maybe you can try deleting it thru your desktop manager (if you have it installed).  Funny, it shows up in my app list.

 

Hope some of this helps. I really like UT - especially now since it doesn't eat up my battery!
