Guide to Removing Multiple Android Bloatware

By

Bloatware can consume generous space from your phone memory and the worst part is that some of those pre-installed apps are not really useful for you. Sometimes, these apps automatically run at startup, and can consume much of your battery life. It can be frustrating, but do not worry because there are ways to remove multiple Android bloatware and we will share with you some:

Flashing Custom ROM

When you replace the stock ROM with custom ROM like Cyanogenmod, it will overwrite the existing operating system, replacing it with the custom one. According to Gadgetstouse, this option will free up your default storage space that used to be occupied by the bloatware. However, it should be known that custom ROM is not official so you have to take your own risk in installing this.

Remove System Apps through NoBloat

According to The Android Soul, NoBloat is a file manager app that deletes unwanted system apps that are pre-installed on your Android device. It is very useful in deleting all the pre-installed apps that you are not actually using. However, NoBloat requires root access to delete the system apps. So you should make sure to root your device first. Again, the catch is that rooting is not official and it voids your phone warranty so be sure to think about it first before rooting your device to use NoBloat app.

Use Third Party Launchers

According to Gadgets To Use, if you are not yet ready for rooting your device then you could use third party launchers like Nova Launcher to remove multiple bloatware. Those third party launchers include built-in features that allow you to hide unwanted app icons from the App Drawer. The apps are still running in the background, but at least you are able to reduce the clutter on your home screen.

Those are some options that you could do to remove multiple Android Bloatware. Remember to be careful and be sure that you are willing to take some necessary risks before doing anything on your phone.

Uninstalling vs Freezing

How-to-geek discussed another possible and interesting option, which is to freeze the apps. According to the article posted by How-to-geek, "freezing" apps is a much safer option than uninstalling them. One useful app to do this option is called Gemini App Manager that can be downloaded from Google Play.
