If you're like me you have no use whatsoever for an app specifically for Amazon/AP/Foreca/Facebook. Maybe like me you're also an ex-Palm user, and are happy to now have OO.org on your phone and to never have to use Docs to Go again

So here are how to remove these things that are cluttering your apps list (run all commands as root):


Amazon installer:

apt-get remove amazon-installer

AP installer:

apt-get remove ap-installer

Facebook installer:

apt-get remove facebook-installer

Foreca installer:

apt-get remove foreca-installer

Docs to Go installer:

apt-get remove dtg-installer

It's not "crapware", you just don't use it.

And if you are not comfortable with CLI and root you may aswell uninstall these apps using Application Manager UI.

Technically that could be said for all bloatware and crapware that comes on all computers.

Obviously someone uses it.. or it wouldn't be on there.. and I still hate it

That's why there is uninstallers
Though I never use it either. On a new computer I prefer to do my own, clean installation.
