Cross-platform GUI written in Rust using ADB to debloat non-rooted android devices. Improve your privacy, the security and battery life of your device. - GitHub - 0x192/universal-android-debloater:...

I just discovered this amazing app! It lets you remove (or just disable) preinstalled apps like Facebook, Netflix, etc. and system apps like samsung knox apps, diagnostic, bixby, and even One UI (but you must have installed other launcher). You can’t brick your device, worst case it falls into a boot loop and after 5 reboots it will factory reset.

Debloating your device will make it faster, more private and more secure (less atack surface).

    Is this better, or just quicker, than going thru the apps in Settings>Apps one by one and hitting ~~“Uninstall” ~~ “Uninstall” or “Disable” whenever the button is available?

      Not every app is graphical. Not all can be disabled.

      Using “package manager” from F-Droid you can list them and simply use adb uninstall --user 0 APP for all apps. Copy paste, appname, thats it.

      Just be sure to keep the logs to reinstall when needed?

      some apps are installed by your system. you can only “disable” them through the settings but not uninstall them.
