In this guide, we will show you the steps to remove or uninstall Bloatware Apps from Android devices via ADB Commands. Near about every OEM packs in a few pre-installed apps on their devices. While they would tag them under productivity or utility domain, but more often than not it has nothing to do with aiding out the users. Rather, it’s mostly due to sponsorship or some contracts. So can’t we just uninstall these apps?
Well, this is where lies the major issue. The smartphone manufacturer treats this bloatware as system apps. So as opposed to user apps, you cannot simply uninstall them. However, there do exist some handy workaround through which you could easily remove or uninstall Bloatware Apps from your Android device via ADB Commands. And this guide shall make you aware of just that. So without further ado, let’s get started.

Video Gude
STEP 1: Install Android SDK
First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used throughout this guide.
STEP 2: Enable USB Debugging
Next up, you will have to enable USB Debugging on your device. This will make your device recognizable by the PC in ADB mode, which will then allow you to boot your device to Fastboot Mode. So head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on Build Number 7 times > Go back to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging.
STEP 3: Get App Package Name
To uninstall a bloatware app, you will need to have its package name. There are quite a few ways through which you could get hold of the same, such as via Play Store. Do check out our guide on How to Get App Package Name on Android [3 Methods]. Or you could also refer to our below-linked tips:
- Use a third-party app like App Package Viewer to get hold of the desired package name:
- You could also use the below command to get hold of all installed apps on your device:
pm list packages
- Or use the below command to list out all the system apps on your device:
pm list packages -s
- Likewise, you could use the below command to get a list of all the Google apps installed on your device:
pm list packages google
STEP 4: Verify ADB Connection
- Connect your device to the PC via a USB cable. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled.
- Then head over to the platform-tools folder, type in CMD in the address bar, and hit Enter. This will launch the Command Prompt.
- Type in the following command in the CMD window to check the ADB Connection:
adb devices
- You should now get the Device ID, signifying that the connection stands successful. [If there’s an issue, then please refer to our guide How to Fix All ADB and Fastboot Errors].
STEP 5: Enable ADB Shell
- Type in the below command in the CMD window and hit Enter:
adb shell
- You shall now get your device codename, signifying that the shell connection has been established.
ADB Command to Disable Bloatware Apps on Android
The below command will disable the bloatware app on your device. They will still remain on your device but won’t be able to carry out any function- either in the foreground or background:
pm disable-user --user 0 <package name>
For example, if you wish to disable Pixel Launcher [the default system launcher on Pixel devices], whose app package name is com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to
pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher
ADB Command to Re-Enable Bloatware Apps on Android
You could use the below command to re-enable the bloatware app on your Android device:
pm enable -–user 0 <package name>
For example, if you wish to re-enable Pixel Launcher, whose app package name is com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to
pm enable -–user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher
ADB Command to Uninstall Bloatware But Keep Data
The below command will remove the bloatware app from your device, but the data of that app will still remain on your device
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name>
For example, if you wish to uninstall Pixel Launcher but preserve data, with the app package name com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher
ADB Command to Uninstall Bloatware and Remove its Data
The following command will uninstall the bloatware from your device and remove all the data of that app as well.
pm uninstall --user 0 <package name>
Say, you wish to uninstall Pixel Launcher and remove its data as well, with the app package name com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to
ADB Command to Reinstall Removed Bloatware Apps
In some instances, removing a bloatware app might make your device behave unexpectedly or the app might itself send Frequent Crash pop-ups. So the best bet in those cases is to reinstall that app. This could be done via the following command:
cmd package install-existing <package name>
For example, if you wish to reinstall Pixel Launcher, whose app package name is com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher
All Android Devices Bloatware List
In this section, we will be listing out all the bloatware apps belonging to major OEMs. Do keep in mind that sometimes an app may misbehave, so it’s better to re-install it. Furthermore, it is up to the user to verify the credibility and usage of each before uninstalling them. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by executing the below commands.

Debloat Remove Oppo Bloatware Apps from Realme
Well, Oppo wasn’t satisfied in bloating its own set of devices and hence decided to jump over to Realme. So let’s remove them from our device and give Realme back its reclaim glory! On that note, here is the list of Oppo bloatware apps that you would find on your Realme device:

HeyTap Apps in Color OS/Realme UI
On Oppo and Realme devices, you will find some apps belonging to HeyTap. Since most of these apps are system bloatware apps, we would advise you to first disable them and use your device for a couple of minutes. If there are no negative consequences, then you may proceed ahead and remove those bloatware apps from your Oppo/Realme device. [On the other hand, if you do face any issues, then just re-enable that app].

Remove Qualcomm Bloatware
These Qualcomm apps are used for testing and debugging purposes. On a personal note, I wouldn’t recommend uninstalling these apps as they might come in handy under certain circumstances. Still, the choice is all yours.

How to Fix Failure[Delete failed Internal Error]
Some users (especially with Realme device owners) are reportedly facing the Failure[Delete failed Internal Error]. So I did an investigation and found out that the OEM has restricted the removal of some system apps. To bypass this, you will need to have a rooted device.
If you are already rooted, then you may proceed with the below set of commands to fix this issue and remove bloatware from your Android device. Make sure to replace AppName and AppID accordingly. Furthermore, when you enter the below ‘su’ command, you shall get a SuperUser prompt from Magisk onto your device, don’t forget to tap on Grant.
adb shell su mount -o rw,remount /system rm -rf /system/app/AppName.apk rm -rf /data/data/AppID mount -o ro,remount /system exit
So this was all from this guide on how to uninstall or remove bloatware from Android devices via ADB Commands. We will be constantly updating this guide with more commands, so don’t forget to bookmark it. Likewise, if you come across any bloatware that is missing from this list, then please let us know in the comments section below, along with your device name.

Hello Sir.
Any idea how to work with “Features” ???
adb shell pm list features
I mean how to Delete / Remove / Disable ?
I think some of them are more important than packages..
Hadi
Any update for tecno & infinix smartphone?
Sadique Hassan
Hi Hadi, this is a universal guide applicable across all Android devices. However, if you are having issues deleting a specific preinstalled app on your Tecno/Infinix, then please let me know the name of that app [or much better, its package ID], and I will let you know the commands
Bogdan
Overall, nice tutorial.
If you could add package names for the “Realme App Names and their Functions” would be very useful.
Vicente
Hola.
Muchas gracias, me fue muy util la lista de comandos.
Te agradezco por compartir tu conocimiento.
Dubi
Removed several apps but ridiculously I lost space!! What can I do to uninstall them and gain space?
Karl
Great list.
I have one question:
If I uninstall a system (Bloatware) package do I actually regain that space in internal memory?
I uninstalled a few but the space I regained was marginal.
Muaad
Exceptional tutorial. I managed to get rid of what I needed easily.
Even better than XDA tutorial.
Sadique Hassan
Glad that it helped you out and thanks for these encouraging words.
helio
this is a great article, thank you!
Arnob
Thanks Sadique, ran into a bit of an issue here. I uninstalled a ton of bloatware while setting up a new Samsung Galaxy M52 using command pm uninstall -k –user 0 . All went fine except that the ‘Accessibility’ section under Settings menu does not open and crashes repeatedly. Not sure which package to reinstall in order to fix it. I see the packages com.samsung.accessibility and com.samsung.android.accessibility.talkback are already installed and I did not even touched them.

Hello!
Can I install an Android Launcher by using the ADB?
ROBERT PEREZ
Amigo Sadique Hassan, le escribo por este medio ya que estoy realizando el mismo procedimiento con un dispositivo alcatel pulse mix, pero con un combatiente
elsa6_na:/ $ pm uninstall -k –user 0 com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping
Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR], ya e tratado en varios ocasiones pero con el mismo resultado.
espero su respuesta; saludos de Venezuela

Use gui tool https://adbappcontrol.com/en/
Soroush
Hi there,
I tried exactly what you said but at the end it gives me this error:
Failure [-1000]
Please help me!! I can’t downgrade my mi music app, which is on a 4.3.0.0 version. ( Chinese version)
Thank you so much
Sadique Hassan
Hola Robert, parece que hay un problema con los permisos administrativos. Después de ejecutar el comando ADB Shell, aparecerá un mensaje en su dispositivo, asegúrese de permitirlo. En la misma línea, asegúrese de tener instaladas las últimas herramientas de la plataforma SDK de Android.
thomas
Thanks for the tutorial, very useful and easy to follow.
bruce
It should be noted that this does actually recover storage. It simply removes the app from the apps list.
Dennis
Use the gui tool https://adbappcontrol.com/en/
Dubi
I just tried that software and no additional space after uninstalling some apps.
Pablo
Thanks for post! i am trying to get an elderly Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 back to life and this is really helping.
I have a question regarding a slight error I made, perhaps someone can help me: i used the uninstall -k instruction in a particularly big piece of bloatware. The uninstall was successful but it seems to me it is still consuming some 40 MB of storage (it still appears in the app list), but now I can’t delete the data nor reinstall it to try the full uninstall again. It seems the cmd install instruction doesn’t work in Android 5.1.1
Any ideas how to completely remove these zombified apps?
Thanks!
