How to Remove System Application on Realme Devices [NO ROOT]

Realme announced RealmeUI for their latest Android device and also updating their older devices with the new Realme UI. Although Realme UI is feature-rich and it has so many bloatware that users will never be going to use some of the apps. If you are one of them and want to uninstall the particular application without rooting your device then keep reading, How to Remove System Application on Realme Devices.

The unwanted and useless applications in your device are considered bloatware. The manufacturer put that in their device by default and you can not uninstall it from setting to make money from the application developer.

Realme devices include bloatware like security keyboard, video, secure apps, share, health check, and many more. I can’t list them all here as there are many apps but can definitely help you remove them all.

The method will require you to grab a PC/ Laptop so make sure to get that before moving to the method. You won’t need to root your device to remove the system apps so don’t worry about that.

How to Remove Bloatware From Realme Devices

01. Enable Developer Option

To enable developer options, go to Settings -> About phone. Now tap seven times ColorOS version to enable Developer options. Once you will tap, you will get a message says ‘You are now a developer!’.

02. Turn on USB Debugging

To do so, go to Settings -> Additional Settings -> Developer Options -> Turn on the toggle next to the USB Debugging. 

It will show a small dialogue box might say this option is only for development purposes. But, it’s okay. Tap on ‘Ok’ to proceed further.

03. Turn on Other Following Options

After turning on USB Debugging, you have to enable some other options as well. Turn on the following options except ‘Revoke USB debugging authorizations’;

  • Install via USB
  • USB Debugging [Security Settings]

04. Get onto the PC

Now, you will need to download platform-tools to follow up on the next steps. I have attached the link below.

Download Platform-tools

Once downloaded, extract the ZIP file and paste it into the C-drive of your computer in a new folder and name that folder as ‘adb’.

05. Apply Commands

Now, connect your Android device to your computer using a USB cable. Once connected, you have to give some commands as I have written below through command prompt (cmd). You can take the help of my screenshot attached below.

cd..
cd..
cd adb
adb devices

Once you will give all of these commands, you should get a dialogue box on your smartphone screen as I have attached in the screenshot below. Simply click on ‘Ok‘.

Now, again give the following command. When you will press enter, on a second you will get your find your device connected. If you get your device connected, then you are good to go for the next step. If you don’t get, maybe you should check into developer options, if there is any setting turned off.
