How to delete or deactivate Samsung's preloaded apps

Let's look at the Galaxy S6 as our example, which is quite a bloated machine in terms of apps.

Simply open the app drawer. Then tap Edit, at the top-right of the screen, and minus signs appear beside the following apps:

• Calculator
• Memo
• Samsung Gear
• Peel Smart Remote
• Dropbox
• S Health
• S Voice
• YouTube
• Play Store
• Chrome
• Maps
• Google apps
• Microsoft apps
• Facebook
• Instagram
• WhatsApp

By pressing on the minus sign, each app will no longer run in the background and they will not receive any updates, eliminating unnecessary drain on resources.
