Disable Bloatware - Hide Apps for Android
"Wahh it's just a shortcut" No. Much more than a shortcut. Easily uses inbuilt settings to disable bloatware without breaking anything. Fantastically easy to use app. Just update your Market link, developer.
This app does exactly what's expected from it: in every single phone I always lock unneeded apps to preserve memory and save space by avoiding their updates. This task need a lot of clicks and it's time consuming, but this app makes it easier, lighter and much quicker by allowing to chose multiple apps at a time. So after all it seems that some where expecting something else, but without rooting your phone, this app works really well.
All I know is this app did EXACTLY what i needed it to do!! Brought my preinstalled apps back and gave me the option to disable..force stop.. and make an app disappear that wouldn't before!
Does not block apps. All this app does is being you right to you app settings with in the phone itself. It's nothing but a shortcut to you apps settings. So it makes no sense to take up memory from my phone for an app th that does what my phone already does. I can create an apps shortcut with my own phone.
Wasted my time with this app. It simply links you to the device app manager (maybe 1-2 clicks less than doing it on your own). It does not allow you to disable apps anymore than what your non-rooted device does normally.
Does what they don't want you to do, plus those pesky notifications, yeppers!, you can shut them off. Job well done. Verizon phone, not yours? Like hell it isn't
Doesn't do anything. System spps that can't be disabled still cannot be disabled, nothing has changed. This app dies nothing I can't do already.
I have a phone that can't be rooted but I still wanted to clean up as much of the bloat as possible. This app doesn't add any new functionality, per se, but it did cut down on the tedious nature of going through app manager app by app and first determining if I could disable the app and then disabling it. I know that without root there is a limit to the level of automation available and this app help cut out the tedium of disabling 80+ apps on my phones. Thank you!
Not working with my Redmi 3S Prime. I think it's not App's Mistake. Problem is within Device's OS
Everything that this app said was hideable was not, anything i tried to disable wanted me to uninstall and when i did try it said unsuccessful to every app. Nice. Great work for a 1 star app.
Why download this app when u can do the same thing by going into your phone without downloading this app is another bloatware
Just a fancy shortcut to application manager. Does nothing on its own. No use installing this app. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
The only app I've found that makes my Nook HD+ usable (despite the overloaded bloatware that's on it). For those that don't feel like rooting their Nook HD+, this is for you.
Wasn't really worth the download, as it only could shut off apps that would allow it in App Manager anyway.
my storage was 94% full and i took it down to 77% using this app in a few minutes it seems that easy so im very pleased with that i can update the apps i want and my J5 is now quicker
Just a shortcut. You can do the same thing in apps without another app running.
You can do what this app does yourself in settings without wasting valuable space.
The best app ever and I like this app . how about an freeze mode so in stand of just hide - able or a hidden thing . It would be cool if there was freeze mode and you can't force to stop and disable . It's like this you can't turn off everything so a thing called freeze mode will let you have you freeze anything for a longer period of time and it's for apps you can't force to stop and disable so then they will go in freeze box and stay frozen for as long as you wan't a freeze mode would be cool if you had one . The best app you will ever see in history .
Why should you update an app that you don't even use? Disable it with this app and save space on your phone! It's easy to use and you'll no longer have to update Google Music or any other bloatware apps ever again!
However it is a very good help to those who do not know how to use application manager.
In theory it should be great, but it shows a lot of apps that I can't hide/disable :/
It got rid of bloatware that is preinstalled on my Motorola phone.
You restart phone then bloatware is active again!

Perhaps lacking a few degrees of refinement...otherwise, a wonderful app that dampens the deep dull throbbing headache of disabling the useless garbage inconsiderately stuffed into Android devices.
For those that don't want to root their phone this is for you. It's exactly what I wanted. Unneeded Bloatware gone, btw it's there just without the pain of rooting my phone (Z3) thank you, btw it's still there just useless, I will paying attention to what you make in the future. Thanks again
This saves you individually opening each app in the phone's own "manage apps" section in settings. This highlights where to choose action first.

Thanks for trying, but I already have an applications manager. That's all this is. It's not special, it doesn't let you disable/turn off bloatware that you couldn't previously disable in your stock applications manager. Waste of space, unfortunately.
Looking to buy App manager Pro...
Less than 2 minutes to disable nore than 30 unwanted unused services. Helps battery last longer due to not need to maintain those 30 unused background processes, almost 40 minutes more of battery life.
I looked on my phone and 25 apps. were running in the background.... I ALMOST NEVER give a bad rating! This wasted my time by having to go thru all my apps.to see which I should..." hide"- try disable! I can do that myself! This deserves 0 stars! Then you wanna charge for it ? For disabling? I hope this gets fixed!
Just a shortcut. You can do the same thing in apps without another app running.
Seems to have gotten better.
How ungroovy of this app! I only got it to disable one simple pre-installed app. This not so fantastic music player called "Mix". Lollipop 5.1.1 Alcatel One Touch Fierce XL this app is not shagalicious. It's killing my mojo
This apps really help me to block all the bloatware on my phone! It helps remove the apps that I can't remove after format it! I can't root my phone to remove this so this is only I can block it. You help me devs
does what it says ...I think ask me in a day or 2
Does not remove in built apps as described.
It can only disable apps you can disable yourself through settings.
by U####:
This app is just a link to the settings<apps<force close, clear data, uninstall, and so on it does nothing aside from what your phone can do on its own. Doesn't allow disable of apps that have the disable area dimmed.
