How to get rid of a persistent iOS app? Last year in Spain, I got a free app to manage my cell phone service.  I no longer have an iPhone, and the app is useless unless I have that account in that country.

So I deleted the app from my iPad, but it keeps reappearing as an available update.  I keep deleting it to save update bandwidth, but it is there repeatedly.  

I know the workaround is to skip its update, but due to circumstances, I have to go some time between updates, and it is quite convenient to "update all" instead of tapping one or two dozen choices.

So how do I completely get rid of this thing?
If the update was pending when it was deleted or something similar, then the various lists of what is installed or needs to be undated may have gotten out of wack. 

Perhaps reinstalling it, updating it, and when there are no updates pending, then deleting it, might be effective.
