How to rid off Bloatware application on new Android phone?

Want to get rid of Bloatware apps on your new Android phone? Most Android phones come with a set of Bloatware applications, they are unnecessary and take up a lot of space in your phone. For example, companies, or mobile operators, often insert them for promotion. Together, they significantly complicate and slow down the work on the phone, advertisements appear, work in the background, etc. It would be good to get rid of these applications if you do not use them. In this article, you can read ways you can uninstall or disable Bloatware applications.

Uninstall

As for uninstalling, it is not an easy task and requires ROOT access! This is because there is a risk that the system will destabilize. After all, you may remove something that the system needs, and then there is no going back. A quick way to uninstall Bloatware is by using the Titanium Backup application. Once you've disabled apps, you can easily remove them in the following steps.

  • First, you need to go to Backup/Restore
  • Then, click on the application
  • You can back it up just in case you want
  • Odaberite „Un-install
  • Then click "Yes" to confirm
Uninstall

So, once you have completed this procedure, you will not see Bloatware applications on your Android phone. It will not work in the background and will not take up space in your phone. The app icon will not disappear immediately, you will need to restart your phone.

If you backed it up, then select it again from the list and click on "Restore" and select "App + Data" and everything will be restored. Or you can completely remove it from your phone by clicking "Delete".

Disabling

If you do not have ROOT and cannot delete system applications, you need to disable them. All you have to do is go to the app settings on your phone, after that you have to go to “All apps” and here you can find apps that were previously installed with the system itself. Select > Force stop > Disable.

Another way to access these settings is to click and hold the app icon on the screen, then drag it to the “App Info” that will appear at the top of the screen. The same screen will appear and be disabled in the same way.

When you click that button, a warning window will appear. This is only for the reason that you would not disable an important application. There are some pre-installed apps on cheaper phones that can’t be disabled. Some important applications may be disabled, so you need to be careful.

Disabling

All disabled applications can be seen at the end of the application list. If you have disabled the wrong application, you can re-enable it. So, don't panic.

However, this will only be a procedure to disable unnecessary applications. Once disabled, the application will no longer appear on the application page and will not be in the background. Disabling apps can free your phone and save some battery. The app will definitely be installed on your phone because the manufacturers want these apps to stay on the phone.
