 At this point, the app is back up. The web pages you looked at in the [test drive](test-drive.md) should be available, and you could experiment, modify the app, and [redeploy](customize-app.md).
 
+## Removing the voting app
+
+To remove the application, but keep the swarm running, do the following:
+
+1.  Log into the manager with `docker-machine ssh manager`.
+
+2.  Run `docker stack rm [APP-NAME]`, e.g., `docker stack rm vote`:
+
+    ```none
+    docker@manager:~$ docker stack rm vote
+    Removing service vote_db
+    Removing service vote_redis
+    Removing service vote_worker
+    Removing service vote_vote
+    Removing service vote_result
+    Removing service vote_visualizer
+    Removing network vote_backend
+    Removing network vote_frontend
+    Removing network vote_default
+    docker@manager:~$ docker stack services vote
+    Nothing found in stack: vote
+    docker@manager:~$ docker node ls

+    ```
+
+    This removes the voting application and all its services from both manager and worker nodes.
+
+3.  Run `docker stack services vote` to verify that the application was removed.
+
+    ```none
+    docker@manager:~$ docker stack services vote
+    Nothing found in stack: vote
+    ```
+
+4.  Run `docker node ls` to verify that the swarm is still active on both nodes.
+
+    ```none
+    docker@manager:~$ docker node ls
+    ID                           HOSTNAME  STATUS  AVAILABILITY  MANAGER STATUS
+    1q0nmgrvbfk9kwj3r9lo85l94 *  manager   Ready   Active        Leader
+    a4zgsyk5upjfc4g6dv89seq69    worker    Ready   Active      
+    ```
+
+    You can re-use the [swarm](/engine/swarm/how-swarm-mode-works/nodes.md) in a
+number of ways, such as redeploy this or another application, try a simple use
+case to [deploy a single service to a swarm](/engine/swarm/services.md), or
+[explore or reconfigure the swarm](/engine/swarm/manage-nodes.md).
