Is it safe to uninstall preloaded apps that have the option to uninstall them?

[Aashray Popli]

My galaxy tab s6 lite had some pre installed apps and some of them can be removed. And it's not uninstalling updates, it removes the app completely. I just want to know if it's safe to do so. One more question, if I accidentally uninstall updates of some system, I can just update it back, right?

System apps cannot be uninstalled unless you are rooted , some apps do allow uninstall completely, so which apps are you referring to?

I meant the apps that allow you to uninstall them completely. My device isn't even rooted

System-level apps do not let themselves be uninstalled.
Many "bloatware" user-apps also do not let themselves be uninstalled.

In general, if the app has an "uninstall" option, it is a user-level app that can be uninstalled with no bad things happening. In general.

For specific answers, we need to know which specific apps you are talking about.

Well, it was some Samsung stuff which included Samsung Flow, Smart Things and 2 Microsoft apps - office and outlook and Google play movies and TV

Those should be safe to uninstall. They can always be reinstalled from the Play Store or the Galaxy Apps Store if needed.

They are safe to uninstall. I have on my devices with no adverse reactions.

I second this. It's a great app that I also use.
