I just ran through all of my Apps on my Android Phone, there are sssssooooo many that came in with the original setup from AT&T that are not only useless but try and get rid of them. You have to go in and shut off each and everyone of them and then you can't delete them, or should I say I can't delete them.
THEN when you get an update from AT&T, some get turned back on again !
You agree to one thing and you get a lot more than you bargained for.
I'm thinking I'll get another Flip Phone, just to do away with all of the useless Apps.
its called bloat ware. When you buy a phone from Samsung or LG, they put their BS on it. THEN your carrier adds their BS onto it. Only way to really get rid of it is to root the phones which is quite effective. Going to do my Tablet and the Note III I've had for a few years now. Niether of which get updates anymore thank God.
