Hello friends! Today I will teach you how to delete default apps on your Android phone, that is the traditional way the system will not let you uninstall. Many manufacturers include third-party apps in their custom versions of the Android mobile operating system. They also include proprietary apps that you may never use. To uninstall them is a simple process you only need a PC with Windows Mac or Linux. Follow the steps below.
First step
Download a tool that will help you communicate through commands between your phone and your PC. This tool is called Android Debug Bridge (ADB). You can download it from Google’s official site following the link below:
If ADB fails, install the drivers for your brand
Once you have downloaded it, simply unzip the ZIP file.
Second step
Download and install the Google Play Store Inspector app by following the link below:
Google Play Store | App Inspector.
Third step
Activate the Developer options. To activate them just go to settings, then look for the compilation number and press several times, until they are activated, this depends on your phone’s brand. For example in the case of Xiaomi is like this: go to Settings>About the phone and then press seven times in the MIUI version to activate the developer options. Then go to the developer options and activate the USB debugging.
Fourth step
Now it’s time to connect your phone to your PC using a USB cable and select the data transfer mode.
After that, on your PC go to the folder you unzipped and open a command window. To do this place the pointer in a empty area then press Shift+ right-click, you’ll get a context menu then press Open PowerShell window here.
Then enter this command:
\.adb.exe devices
Then your phone will notify you that your PC wants to connect. Finally, press allow. If everything went well your phone should appear in the list of devices.
Fifth step
Now open App Inspector, find the app you want to uninstall. You must write down the name of the package.
Sixth step
Return the PC to the command window and enter the following two commands:
This command is to access your phone system
\.adb.exe shell
Now enter the last command that will uninstall the app.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 PackageName
And that is it. Enjoy!
