Easily Remove Bloatware From Galaxy S20, S20+, S20 FE and S20 Ultra (No Root)

Samsung in 2020 released its Galaxy S20 line-up devices which are the current flagship from the company as well. All the Samsung Galaxy S20 series devices like Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, Galaxy S20FE and Galaxy S20 Ultra have top-notch specs and features but just like previous iterations, these devices too have tons of pre-installed app a.k.a bloatware.

If you are a person who doesn’t like a bloated device, then we have got you covered here. Here we will be sharing the simplest way to remove bloatware from Samsung Galaxy S20, S20+, S20 FE and S20 Ultra.

The Samsung Galaxy S20 device came with Android 10 on the top of One UI out-of-the-box. While the device comes with some useful and stock apps that will come in handy for most of the users. On the other side, Samsung has included some of the unwanted and unnecessary apps or services in the device as well. If you’re getting irritated with those preloaded apps known as Bloatware, then this article is for you.

You don’t need to unlock the bootloader or enable root access on your device in order to delete all the preloaded apps. As we will use the ADB and Fastboot method, so the Samsung KNOX Security or the Samsung Manufacturer Warranty won’t void.
