Unwanted applications are the most annoying. As a result, we need to get rid of them to free up some storage space. Actually, there are two methods to remove applications, the first of which is pretty simple. The second method, on the other hand, is more specific. However, it is advantageous to the Android user who cannot remove applications that do not offer an uninstall option in the first place.
