What I personally like about Google's Pixel smartphones, compared to other Android phone makers like Samsung, is that the phones don't come with as much bloatware. Yes, Google has most of its apps pre-installed on its devices, such as YouTube and Gmail, but these are genuinely useful apps that many people use. With Samsung, One UI includes a lot of bloatware apps you're likely to never even use.
That said, Google isn't entirely off the hook when it comes to pre-installed apps that are unnecessary. While I wouldn't classify them as bloatware the way I would with Samsung, there are still quite a few that I don't use, never plan to use, and don't need, which I uninstalled to save storage and tidy up my phone. If you already have a Pixel phone, or you're about to get a brand-new Pixel 10 series device, here are four pre-installed Google apps that I think are worth uninstalling if you don't use them, plus one worth disabling.
To remove any of these apps from your Pixel phone, find the app in the app drawer, press and hold its icon, then select App info and tap Uninstall. Alternatively, you can go to Settings > Apps, find the app in the list, tap on it, and uninstall from there.
