I just discovered this amazing app! It lets you remove (or just disable) preinstalled apps like Facebook, Netflix, etc. and system apps like samsung knox apps, diagnostic, bixby, and even One UI (but you must have installed other launcher). You can’t brick your device, worst case it falls into a boot loop and after 5 reboots it will factory reset.

Debloating your device will make it faster, more private and more secure (less atack surface).

      A pixel? None of that comes pre-installed and it’s one of the only devices that comes with the ability to unlock it and flash a custom ROM day 1.

        Not everybody lives with gold coming out of their hands. Some of us have shitty phones because either we don’t want to invest in an expensive one or we are too poor for that.

              What?

              My answer is valid. A Pixel is a phone that doesn’t come with bloat and allows you to root and flash a custom ROM on release day.

              Sounds like you’re a little challenged, so I’ll forgive you. Have a great day today, sport!
