Whether you want to organize your phone or help improve performance, knowing how to delete or disable apps on Android is very useful. With millions of apps available on Google Play, it’s easy to find too many on your phone.

There are two ways to delete apps on Android, which are quick and easy. However, depending on your phone brand, there are subtle differences, which we’ll cover as well.

How to Delete Apps on Android – Here’s how to set it up:
- Open Settings
- Tap on Apps & Notifications or Apps
- (Pixel and OnePlus) Select View All Apps or App Info
- Tap on the app you want to delete
- Select Uninstall and click OK when prompted
The app and its data will be deleted from your phone. If an app shows the disabled option, it means it is a pre-installed app that cannot be completely removed from your system. However, there are still advantages to disabling the app, as it will no longer show up in your app drawer or run in the background. So if it’s an app you haven’t used and won’t be using, you should disable it using the same steps above.
