Seldom Used Apps

[gerryp123]

I have lots of apps on my N7.
Wondering how best to treat seldom used apps so as to minimize possible battery drain. cpu performance, N7 start-up time.
Should they be (force) stopped, uninstalled until needed, removed from start-up, etc -- or should I just leave them alone?

Welcome to the forums!
You should be able to disable some in Settings>Apps swipe over to all, and click on the app in question. You should see Force stop and Disable/Uninstall updates. Updates need to be uninstalled before disabling any apps.
