Hi S5 users:
I did find lots of info on some unnecessary apps you can turn off when you purchase your new S5. Great info online for this.
I still want to get rid of some others and how do you know which?? the messages like "turning off this app will cause problems with your other apps" always makes me default to NOT uninstall.
Apps like:
FamilyBase Companion
Flipboard
Blurb Checkout
ANT + Plugins
ANT radio service
HP Print Service Plugin
Google Play Books
Google Play Music
Google newsstand
Google Talkback
Samsung Print Service Plugin
Samsung Push Service
I will say that I'm not a huge app user - might have about 3-6 max that didn't come with phone. I run a business and do not use it for music, video, printing, chatting with friends on social media.... i use it mostly to call, text, camera!! and sync Google calendar and using as a hotspot with my laptop at my private office.
Are there any on the list above that anyone can speak to that i absolutely NEED to keep my phone running properly and should not install??
And if I do Uninstall, when it says "will restore to factory version"... I thought the whole point was to get it off the phone so that message confuses me.
ok forum peeps, thanks in advance for your input. about 3 weeks in with this new phone and it's still a little smarter than me, but i'm learning =)
Cheers
