In this guide, we will show you a nifty method to disable and freeze apps on your Android device without using ADB Commands or PC. There might be a few apps installed on your device that is constantly running in the backend and is hogging all the precious system resources.
Although uninstalling those apps is an obvious option, but if you plan on using them in the near future, then re-installing them and setting them up calls for unnecessary time and effort. So in such cases, your best bet is to disable those apps. While they will still remain on your device but all their activity and processes will be frozen and hence they won’t be able to hog system resources from your device.
One of the most standard ways through which you could disable or freeze apps on your Android device is by executing ADB Commands, which in turn, requires a PC. Isn’t there any other easier way out? Well, turns out there is one that doesn’t require any of these two prerequisites. So without further ado, let’s check it out.
