Ability to uninstall pre installed apps

Status: Reviewed Submitted by on ‎21-10-2019 08:57 PM

Why not introduce the ability to uninstall some of the pre installed apps such as Facebook, my files, and the Microsoft stuff we have bundled in the UK. Also the ability to uninstall Bixby if we want to and make downloads available for the people that may want to reinstall them. I would be happier removing a lot of the stuff I don't use (I haven't used my files on any of the Samsung phones I've had over the years)..

I think it is totally wrong to, not only  pre-install all these apps, but to not permit them to be removed. I purchased the phone and therefore it belongs to me. It no longer belongs to Samsung. Hence they surely have no right to sign deals with software providers that put these apps on our phones without a means of removing them. There seem to be more and more coming all the time and this eats up the machine's memory - my memory, not Samsung's.

Not only are they installed, but many are running in the background and no way of stopping that from happening.
