Method 1: Using Universal Android Debloater
The Universal Android Debloater tool is a very useful tool that will help you remove bloatware and unnecessary pre-installed apps from Android devices.

Step 3. Setup ADB On Your PC
Now, you have to install and set up ADB on your PC. To do so, follow the steps below.
1. First of all, download the Android SDK Platform tool from here.
2. After downloading the file, extract it on your desktop or whenever you want. (I recommend you extract it on the desktop).
3. Now, open the ADB tool folder that you have extracted in 2 steps and click on the address bar. There, type “cmd” and hit enter. This will open the Command Prompt.
4. Now, connect your Android device to your PC via a USB or Type C cable.
5. Now, type 'adb devices' and hit Enter. This will check if your device is connected properly or not. If you see your device’s serial number, move to the next step.
Step 4. Open the Android Debloater Tool
1. First, move the “uad_gui-windows.exe” file, which you downloaded in STEP 1, to the ‘platform-tools’ folder.
2. Then click on the that file. It will open the Universal Android Debloater program, and it will automatically detect your Android smartphone.
3. Once your device is detected, ensure that ‘Recommended’ is selected from the top drop-down menu.
4. Now, choose the packages you want to remove, then click on the ‘Uninstall’ Button. (Before proceeding I recommend you to carefully verify the package names.)
5. After clicking the uninstall button, the app will be removed from your Android device. In case, you’ve uninstalled a system app and want to restore it, choose the ‘Uninstalled’ option from the drop-down menu and select the package. Then, click on ‘Restore selection’.
That’s it. This is how you can remove any bloatware apps from your Android devices.
