I found the purchased apps recently, even those I'd deleted, so even though they are listed there, is good to learn they have left nothing behind, thanks
The Purchased Apps list in the App Store is merely a record of all the apps you've ever purchased (paid and free). They are not an indication of apps currently installed on your iPad.
In short yes they do, I Us Battery doctor and easily remove hundreds of mb's. Unfortunately I can't find it on the Apple Store anymore but there are other programs to use but I love battery doc.Throughout the day, I keep an eye on AppZapp pro, just to see what they're giving away. If I see anything that might be useful, I install it. If I then find it's not for me, it is easily shaken and removed.
My question is this. Do these tried apps leave a thing behind and if so, how should they be cleared away totally.

That's why they are safe to use as all apps are screened by Apple before they can go into the store, whereas android is not screened. Maybe that's why it's not there anymore. I've put idoctor on my partners iPads to try but I still use battery doctor without any problems. I to am learning as I go too that's why these forums are so good.I'm no expert, but from some of the reading I've done, it appears the data is wiped when an app is deleted. All that remains is some keychain references, if applicable. I'm happy to stand corrected by those who know more about this.
Now regarding those "battery doctor" type apps, I gather Apple would have limited what they can and cannot do on a device level outside of the app itself. These are mostly just statistical apps, and don't actually have the ability to make too many changes outside its own sandbox. Again, happy to be educated by those in the know.

That's strange as it's not in the store anymore and hasn't been for a long time, just checked mine and no adds what so ever and have never had any warnings in all the years I've been using it both on Apple and android
