Top apps you should delete from your Android phone.

Not all apps available on the Google Play store are safe or necessary for your phone. Therefore, you need to aggressively remove some junk apps that waste storage space, fill up memory, and generate viruses... so that your Android phone stays "healthy".

Bloatware is pre-installed on the phone.

Not every Android phone you buy is brand new as you might think; they almost always come pre-installed with a bunch of unnecessary software. These apps are called bloatware and can take many forms, from games to manufacturer-owned applications. Because these apps are pre-installed, they consume your device's storage space.

Many people avoid using these bloatware apps because they have other alternatives. If that's the case for you, you should delete these apps from your phone.

Top apps you should delete from your Android phone.

Remove performance-enhancing apps.

Performance-boosting apps, also known as optimizers, aim to clean up your phone and speed it up by deleting unnecessary files and clearing the cache.

While a few products might actually do the job well, not every Android phone cleaner you find in the Google Play store is any good. The truth is, many of them do nothing but consume RAM and take up your precious storage space.

That's why it's best to avoid performance-boosting apps altogether, because you can easily clear your cache and delete unwanted files without their help.

Backup application

Currently, millions of apps are available on the Google Play Store. With such a huge number, it's not surprising if you have two or even three of the same type of app. For example, you might have multiple browsers and possibly multiple file explorers , calendars, and even audio players on your phone.

However, not all apps are exactly the same, as some have unique features that set them apart from the crowd. You might have a good note-taking app for to-do lists and another note-taking app that lets you export notes to PDF.

Although they are essentially the same, they offer different functionalities. In situations like this, you should keep both apps on hand.

However, if you have too many unnecessary apps on your phone, they will inadvertently make your device less efficient than it was initially. Therefore, choosing only the truly suitable apps and removing the rest is always a good idea.

Old utility apps to free up space

If you've been using Android since Android 1.0 was released in 2008, you may have had to install a flashlight app just to use the LED light on the back of your device. Those were the days when not many features came standard with the Android operating system; users had to rely on third-party apps just to get the most out of their phones.

However, Android has evolved significantly, and it's no surprise that it now boasts a host of features that make your phone smarter than ever. The recently released Android 13 is complete with themed app icons, improved user privacy controls, and an intuitive photo selector, among other features.

With these exciting features, customers will no longer need their old utility apps. Start by uninstalling QR code scanners, document scanners, and flashlight apps, as they are already built into your phone, to free up storage space.

Antivirus application

Today, everyone is worried about malware invading their privacy and illegally spreading personal information. That's why many people have become fans of antivirus applications.
