ALL this application does is SHOW YOU HOW TO FORCE STOP Pesky apps. Which is exactly what i had been doing for a year and a half MANUALLY AND WITHOUT ANY INSTRUCTION. The only value in this app would be for someone that JUST GOT THEIR VERY FIRST ANDROID DEVICE and has no idea yet how to use it.

It does exactly what the description says, and my phone is now running way faster. Thanks! People need to read the description and know what the app is supposed to do before they post their vulgar and mean negative reviews. You shouldn't have to do this, but maybe you should change the app name to "Disable System Apps" since so many people don't bother to get the facts before they criticize. I hope you are able to ignore the nastiness from ignorant people.

It hides a lot of apps and really makes your phone less bloated. The great thing about this app is that you don't have to root your phone, which always ended up with me having to restore my phone to its original settings in the past. Would recommend to anyone who doesn't want to root but wants to clear up their phone.

Its fine but where are most of my apps i just wanna hide my private apps. And the way to hide them is to disable them. But the fin part is u dnt need to root your device.

Can u make it more simple just by showing a hideable app on drawer? Cz isn't all system app sure doesn't shown on launcher or drawer, and how about make an option to change the name of this app so this won't know by anyone else and also give this app to make a password for its own

About this app

You don't care for all the useless apps your carrier adds to Android? Do you want to remove carrier and manufacturer bloatware apps?

Well, now you can get rid of them! This app lists hide-able apps and helps you to hide system (built-in) apps from the application drawer.

★ batch hide apps
★ list hide-able and hidden apps
★ sort apps by name, size or installation time
★ batch uninstall apps
★ no ads (PRO-only)

Android does not enable you to uninstall system apps. 2 Hide Apps can help you to disable system apps. I.e. remove their icons from the app drawer, and clean space for the useful stuff.

Disabling apps is a way to basically freeze and hide any unused, unwanted, or unruly system apps that came on your phone. Another reason you might want to disable an app is if it is causing problems for your system, whether it be battery drain or lag.

At first, you may think, Why would I ever need to do that? But if you look at it from a control perspective, you'll quickly realize that this move could be perceived as a slap in the face to carriers and their need to install bloatware, or apps that they have installed on your phone through partners which cannot be removed. It's also a way to disable rogue system apps that may be gobbling up battery, are running too often in the background, or that you wish were unavailable to users of your phone.

Bloatware, as we refer to these carrier-installed apps, typically cannot be removed by a simple UNINSTALL. Many of them have been permanently placed at a system-level storage on your phone, which means you cannot manipulate them without having superuser power over your phone. So if you want to remove the trial of latest game or the suite of apps that you wouldn't normally have installed, disabling them will at least hide them from your view. It's not the optimal situation for control freaks, but it does at least get them out of your app drawer and keep them from running in the background.
