Wow, that's a lot of bloat! Let me check with a Mod to see if we ought to make this a sticky. Thanks!

EDIT: Ok, stuck the thread. But users should be aware that there have been discussions about how disabling or deleting too many bloatware/system apps (or perhaps disabling or deleting specific ones that haven't yet been identified) might lead to increased battery drain. It may be that some of these bloat or system apps are accessed by other apps, and disabling or deleting them may have an impact on how those other apps function and how much energy they use.

[NOTE]Something else to bear in mind is that while the phone can function without these, it doesn't mean things won't break. Disabling the GearStub and I think the ANT apps will cause conflicts if you have a Samsung watch.[/NOTE]

Samsung Galaxy S7

I would like to point out that for the S7 and S7 Edge in particular disabling a lot of these apps above WILL cause you to get bad battery life. There are a lot of reviews over on XDA that users are having issues getting worse battery life when disabling a lot of system apps. I would be very cautious on using this list to disable apps.

The bottom line is that you should avoid completely removing any of these apps unless you're 100% sure it doesn't impact anything else. Disable or freeze them instead (or make sure you've backed things up before removing them).

Hello, i' m new here and played a lot with disabling or delete (bloat)ware. So, a few weeks ago I deleted Samsung Members and many more and my phone stucked. So, i am not sure this is because Samsung Members. Has anyone experience with deleting Samsung Members?

p.s. i have uninstalled all system apps with the app: packages list and Windows ABD.

Samsung S7

Thanks in advance.

Sorry for bumping this, but I would really appreciate it if you could redirect me to an updated list of system apps that are not only safe to uninstall but also don't harm the phone's battery or ram consumption. Thank you very much. :)
