Can I avoid Verizon Crapware? What are advantages of bringing an unlocked Android phone to Verizon vs a Verizon ready phone?
That's my goal. There are several "crapware" apps on my current Samsung Verizon branded phone. e.g. NFL Mobile, Audible, Flipboard, go90, Peel Smart Remote, etc. These apps take up memory and are impossible to delete. These apps have to be upgraded everytime Google releases a new version of Android and that delays the upgrade that I receive. Verizon refuses to list the apps that they install. I'm just wondering if there are any of those apps which I actually need.If you don't have a Verizon branded phone, then you won't have all the applications they install on their devices.
