Most Android manufacturers do this on purpose to offer a device with a low price point. The most painful part about the game was that you were not allowed to remove the app straightforward.
Some apps aim to provide their service through third-party apps, which are cheap and not so useful. Today, we will be sharing how you can remove the pre-installed application but without root access. So without further ado, let’s check it out.
