How to eliminate a widget from the phone...

[rgfcpq]

I made the mistake of installing the Dashclock widget on my HTC One. It does not do what I want it to and therefore I don't need it. Unfortunately, it continues to run a process even though I don't utilize it on any of my screens. There is no "App" to uninstall, and when I try to delete the widget from the list of available widgets, I can't figure it out. Any ideas on how to do this?

thanks,
Ray

Settings>Apps>Scroll down to Dashclock and click on it. This is the App info screen. You should see a button for uninstall.
Alternate is to go to Play>your Apps>click on Dashclock, and uninstall that way.

Perfect! I did not know you could uninstall from the app info screen. Worked like a charm. Many thanks.

No sweat. That series of steps allows for disabling of apps and disabling notifications from apps.
