When you purchase a new Samsung Galaxy, it comes with some pre-installed apps which are known as bloatware. There are many reasons why you may want to delete those pre-installed apps. It might be to free up space as these apps take up a certain amount of space. You might also want to uninstall them because they are quite useless to you but you should note that most bloatware does not take up much space and so uninstalling them won’t end up freeing much space which you can use to install other heavy apps.

It is possible to uninstall and delete pre-installed bloatware on your Samsung Galaxy. Some pre-installed apps on the Samsung Galaxy can be uninstalled completely while some others can only be disabled. When you disable a pre-installed app, it disappears from your list of apps, and it won’t be able to run in the background of your Samsung Galaxy.

  1. That’s fine for the apps Google let’s you uninstall from Android phones, but what about all the other garbage, Kids Mode, Chrome, Book, Music, Magazine, and a whole host of other junk using memory that most people don’t want?

    I have junk I will NEVER use like:
    com.google.android.youtube using 38.3 MB
    com.dropbox.android. using 17.3 MB
    com.android.chrome using 14.87 MB

    The list goes on an on to the tune of about 2 GB.

    How about posting an article on how to get rid of that junk!
