huge bug in digital wellbeing

[smithsmobile]

This obnoxious lump of spyware has "wipe all data" available In  its menu , it doesn't work and its massivly intrusive data collection remains intact.

Anybody know how to wipe it?

I'm going to root my phone just to get rid of it, I won't ever buy another Shamsung product it its installed on it.

Kill it using either adb or using one of the package disabler apps, root not required for any of these methods

You can also deny access to usage data via its own menu

Thank you very much, had no idea such lovely apps were available, going to check them out right now

just bought the pro version and its disabled it , so so happy , well worth 2.29 to get rid of Samsung's shameful spyware

Also bye bye Bixby , I won't miss you

anything else worth killing on a Galaxy s9?

I take it back:(
Take it back the software I bought just disabled the button to launch digital wellbeing and it still runs in the background it won't even delete the data.

Time to root the phone and delete it.
