I'd love to know more about system apps - anything preloaded in the phone. There are many things I don't recognize, don't know their function/purpose, which makes disabling or removing permissions daunting. Thanks!

[sandykirk]

It's really about time you talked about Android phones. Prayers were answered❤

[mzox]

Super great thanks. I'm going to see if you have and video about deleting Gmail emails quickly I pay extra for Google 1 to get more space but I have tried to delete things over and over and over again and my usage never gets smaller. Any thoughts? Thank you

4:02 Toothbrush is not necessarily for cleaning your charging port, but a toothpick may do the trick. Just do it gently and slowly because when you do it really fast and really hard, you may break the charging port.

I love everything you do. All your videos are AWESOME 😎

Rewatching this in 2024 to remember to allow all my Android apps permission when I initially turned off all the toggles that were recommended to turn off a year ago.

When I got my first smartphone, I had people telling me I needed an antivirus. When I got my next phone, it slipped my mind. And I haven't had one since.

That convenient McAfee offer did not appear on the plain vanilla s23

Thanks for the great advice. Me, I turn off the all the background process of my apps. I'm from the Philippines.

[mattgeorge]

How do you take Bixby off my S20 or how do I minimise it's intrusiveness ???

[OppoA-kvvg]

I ❤️ ANDROID PHONE OR SMARTPHONE TOPICS 😊😊😊

Hi, you didn't mention in some of the hidden apps you can't deny permissions, the system say "device require this permission to operate"
At this point i don't know if is true or false 😅😅, , what you gonna do with those ones?
Thank you

[cdomenicci]

You guys are awesome ❤❤❤ thanks for those tips

I'm struggling to get up the courage to just buy an Android smartphone. So many caveats to worry about. The fear and dread is worse than when I bought my first PC back in 1990 (MS Windows 3.1).

[Colette-xh]

No they don’t have any shame!
I do that on my iPhone regularly
for protection. Google has a habit of asking me all the time and most times I say no because it’s just excessive.
I clean my phone weekly/daily! Truly for germs!
Can’t do that on an Apple 😂😂😂 👍🏾
Awesomeness

If you ever listened to Edward Snowden, you would never buy an Android, or anything run by Google.
William Binney is also worth listening to, he used to be Technical Director of the NSA, and laid out how Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Microsoft all work. Stellar Wind mean anything to you.
