We’ve all been there: you buy a shiny new smartphone, and it comes loaded with a bunch of apps you never asked for and don’t want. These pre-installed apps, often called “bloatware,” can be super annoying, especially when you know you’ll never use them. 😑 Not only do they take up valuable storage space, but they also sometimes run in the background, draining your battery or even using up mobile data. 

Why keep these useless apps when you could use that storage for things you actually need, like your favorite games, music, or even more photos of your adorable cat? 😸

So, if you’ve been wanting to get rid of these apps but haven’t been able to delete them, you’re in luck! In this guide, I’ll show you how to remove those stubborn pre-installed apps using Canta, whether your phone is rooted or unrooted. Let’s dive in! 😁

Why You Should Remove Unnecessary Pre-installed Apps

First things first—why bother deleting these apps at all? Well, here are a few good reasons as follows!

1. Free Up Storage Space

Pre-installed apps often take up a lot of space, which you could use for more important things. Even though some apps might seem small, when you have several of them, it adds up. 😬

2. Improve Performance

Many of these apps run in the background, even when you’re not using them. By removing them, you can help your phone run faster and smoother. Nobody likes a laggy phone!

3. Save Battery Life and Data

Some bloatware apps use your battery and mobile data without you even realizing it. Deleting them means you can save both battery life and data for apps you actually use.

4. Less Clutter

Having a bunch of icons for apps you never touch makes your home screen look messy. Tidying it up by removing unused apps can make navigating your phone so much easier. 🙌

So, now that we’ve got the "why" out of the way, let’s get into the "how."

How to Remove Pre-installed Apps Using Canta (For Rooted and Unrooted Phones)

Before we jump into the tutorial, here’s a little heads-up: Canta is a powerful tool for managing apps on Android phones, but if your phone isn’t rooted, you’ll need to install a tool called Zizhuku first to make the process work. Don’t worry—I'll explain everything step by step, so you'll be able to remove those pesky apps in no time! ⏳

For Rooted Phones

If your phone is rooted, you’re already one step ahead. Rooting gives you full access to your phone’s system files, which makes it super easy to remove any app you want, including pre-installed ones. Here’s how to do it:

1. Install Canta:  Head to the Canta app page and download it. It’s available on most APK stores, and it’s easy to install.

2. Open Canta and Grant Root Access:  Once installed, open Canta, and it will ask for root permission. Make sure to grant it root access, so it can make changes to your phone’s system.

3. Find the App You Want to Remove:  In Canta, you’ll see a list of all the apps installed on your phone, including the pre-installed ones. Scroll through and find the app you want to remove.

4. Delete the App:  Select the app, tap the "uninstall" button, and poof! It’s gone from your phone.

5. Reboot Your Phone:  After removing the app, it’s a good idea to restart your phone just to make sure everything runs smoothly.

For Unrooted Phones

If your phone isn’t rooted, don’t worry! You can still remove pre-installed apps using Canta, but you’ll need to install Zizhuku first. Here’s how to do it!

1. Download Zizhuku:  Zizhuku is a tool that helps you bypass the need for root access. Download and install Zizhuku from a trusted APK store. Make sure to check reviews and sources to avoid any sketchy downloads. 😉

2. Install Canta:  After Zizhuku is installed, go ahead and download Canta just like you would for a rooted phone.

3. Open Zizhuku and Link It with Canta:  Open Zizhuku, and it will guide you through a few steps to link it with Canta. This part can take a couple of minutes, but it’s pretty straightforward.

4. Launch Canta and Find the App You Want to Remove:  Now that Canta is linked with Zizhuku, you’ll be able to access all the apps on your phone, just like on a rooted device. Scroll through the list and find the app you want to remove.

5. Uninstall the App:  Tap the "uninstall" button in Canta, and just like that, the app will be gone. 

6. Reboot Your Phone:  As with rooted phones, it’s always a good idea to reboot your phone after making changes.

Removing those unnecessary pre-installed apps can make your phone faster, cleaner, and way more enjoyable to use. Whether your phone is rooted or unrooted, using Canta (and Zizhuku for unrooted phones) is a simple way to take control of your device and get rid of the clutter. So go ahead, give it a try! 👌
