- Bloatware slows down the phone
- Bloatware eats up necessary RAM memory
- Drains the battery
- It can send information to the app developer or others
- In order to get rid of bloatware you can choose between uninstalling and disabling apps. Uninstalling an app will permanently delete the app from your device and sometimes you cannot reinstall apps that come installed from factory because they are not public. So you are left with the disabling option, which basically stops the app from functioning therefore not eating up resources from your device.
- Another problem with removing bloatware is that you are going to need root access in order to do this. This means you have to root your device so that you can access the system app root folder that contains the apps.
- In order to uninstall or disable bloatware you are going to need a special app. Here are some apps that provide this for you: Titanium backup, Gemini App Manager, Root Manager, Root explorer.
- Once you install the app you just follow the instructions and remove the apps that you know you are not using
- Another way to have bloatware removed is by installing Custom ROMs. Developers usually remove bloatware for you because this increases the overall performance of a ROM.
