Android: how to remove default apps?

Apps are somewhat the basis of our smartphones, without them they are useless, but not all of them are useful. Everyone has their own way of using their smartphone and the most frustrating thing is to have items that are useless but still take up space. Operator apps are the best example, want to know how to uninstall? Right here.

i will suggest you two radically different solutions below. A “soft” solution that is quick and easy to implement but not optimal. A “hard” solution that is more complex but very effective. It’s up to you to choose which one you want to follow, while the latter lets you actually delete your unwanted Android apps and free up space on your smartphone’s storage memory. The illustrative images were made from a Galaxy S4 running Android 5.0 .2 Lollipop, then a newer version like Android Oreo or Nougat. your experience may be slightly different.

Android: disable your apps

This solution will not allow you to remove so-called “system” apps like your carrier’s, but will make them invisible and dysfunctional. By disabling an app you will no longer receive a notification and the icon will no longer appear in your app list. You can disable and re-enable all your apps at any time.

• come in Settings your device
• Later in the section applications (or Application Management)
• Choose application you want to disable (or remove)
• to push Deactivate
• A warning message appears, click on OK

Android: root your smartphone or tablet

Rooting your device seems dangerous, complicated and dangerous, but it isn’t quite so. First of all root is what gives you full admin rights on your phone so you can have full control of it and even have additional features. Also, rooting your phone does not void your smartphone’s warranty. Moreover, since root cancels itself, it is not irreversible.

Android: How to uninstall apps with my rooted device

After rooting your phone, you will be able to uninstall any app you downloaded, from your carrier or even Android system that you don’t need. You are free to do whatever you want with your phone! I will show you a sample application that allows you to do this.

• install the app System application uninstaller (ROOT)
  

  

• start the application
• Select apps to uninstall
• to push remove
• Verify procedure

The app gives you two sections, User apps section and System apps section. The first section works like Android’s built-in application manager and additionally allows you to uninstall multiple apps at once. The second part allows you to get rid of your carrier, manufacturer and their applications integrated into Android.

Be careful not to uninstall anything, some system apps won’t uninstall. should not be removed. Fortunately, the app shows the severity in each app with messages like: [Doit être conservée] and a pretty self-explanatory color code, orange for what you can still remove and red for what shouldn’t really be removed.

Android: How can I restore my apps when needed

If necessary, the apps you remove with this app (at least system apps) are thrown into a recycle bin. If you accidentally uninstalled an important app or you eventually want to keep the app, all you have to do is go to the trash and restore the apps. Here’s how:

• start the application
• Tap the trash can icon on the hill
• Select apps to restore
• to push reinstate
• Verify procedure

Of course, other apps in the Play Store allow you to do the same, I chose this app because I found it very powerful and practical, besides it’s very light and free. If you choose to choose another app, be sure to check to see if it allows you to root your phone. It is usually written in the name or description of the application (ROOT).
