In this guide, we will show you various methods to remove the app picks from the Hello UI App Drawer in Motorola. When someone asks me for a budget device, I have started suggesting them the ones from Motorola [sorry Xiaomi, your UI is just not worth having a second look at]. One major reason for the same is their clean, stock UI experience, similar to the lines of Pixel.
However, I might have to give second thoughts to my recommendations now, all thanks to Motorola’s decision to go in the same route as other Chinese OEMs have gone in the past. For the unaware, Moto has also started embedding unnecessary app recommendations in its UI, which is nothing short of ads.
So, what can be done? Well, as opposed to other OEMs, Motorola has given us an option to turn off these recommendations [well, at least for now]. So, without any further ado, let’s show you how this could be carried out.
How to Remove App Picks from Hello UI App Drawer in Motorola
There are quite a few ways of getting this job done. Go through each of them given below and then try out the one that works for you.
- Long-press in an empty region on your home screen and select Home Settings.
- Now go to “Home screen style” or “Suggestions” and turn off the toggle next to “Suggestions in all apps list” and “Suggestions on home screen.”
- If that’s not there, then go to “Home screen style” > “App tray” or “App drawer”.
- Now tap on the Settings toggle and choose “App picks,” “App recommendations,” or “View app recommendations.”
