FAQ

Why Disable and not Remove?

Disabled applications can be easily re-enabled from the Device Settings should the need arise. This makes it a safer option compared with complete removal.

How Does it Work?

Android Cleaner uses the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to perform its interactions with your device. ADB needs to be installed on your system before you can use this program.
