New free app removes unwanted bloatware quickly & safely

Universal Android Debloater

The history of bloatware on Android began when network operators bundled a multitude of useless apps onto smartphones that were sold over their network. From there, it spread fairly quickly to the manufacturers themselves, who shipped a variety of functionally duplicate but inferior apps, and even apps from Facebook and Microsoft with the factory firmware.

While some people find these pre-installed apps useful, other users find them rather frustrating and annoying. And then you just want to get rid of them. But some of these apps cannot be uninstalled at all or not so easily.

However, there are ways to circumvent these limitations. With the Universal Android Debloater app, you can now "uninstall" any pre-installed system app from an Android device, even without root access.

XDA member w1nst0n_fr created the Universal Android Debloater project - a shell script that uses community-maintained vendor- and carrier-specific bloatware lists to enable smooth removal. The latest version of Universal Android Debloater GUI adds a variety of new packages to the debloat lists, brings multi-device support, persistent settings for portability, and some other improvements.

The complete Universal Android Debloater GUI 0.4 (and 0.4.1) changelog can be viewed here. Since it's an open-source project, you can follow its development and contribute to the bloatware database on GitHub.
