All of the removable Apple apps:

Removing an Apple application from the home screen does not remove it from the device.

Calculator, Calendar, Compass, Contacts, FaceTime, Find My Friends, Home, iBooks, iCloud Drive, iTunes Store, Mail, *Maps, *Music, News, Notes, *Podcasts, Reminders, Stocks, Tips, Videos

• You can remove the Contacts app from an iPhone only. If you remove Contacts, you won’t lose your contact information. You can still find all of that information in the Phone app.
• If you remove the Music app, it won’t be available to use with CarPlay.
• If you try to remove the Watch app from an iPhone that’s paired with an Apple Watch, an alert asks you to unpair your Apple Watch before you can remove the app.
