Bloatware on new terminals can cause inconvenience to users, such as loss of storage space, worse device performance, privacy and security risks…For this reason, many users choose to uninstall or deactivate bloatware from their terminals. Well Android 14 is going to end bloatware, I'll tell you how.
What is bloatware?
The pre-installed apps on your terminal when you buy it are the well-known bloatware. To understand this term we have to go back to a time when access to apps was more difficult.
Now you just have to click on the catalog of apps that comes already installed on your mobile (Google Play Store is an example of bloatware) and install the one you want the most. Before, when you bought a new mobile phone, you had to understand what apps were installed on the terminal. In other words, Before bloatware was important.
Before, bloatware mattered, and a lot
It was important because those apps were really part of your mobile device and it was not easy to get new apps. Keep in mind that there was a time when young people chose cell phones not because of the camera or the size of the screen, but because The reason for the purchase was decided by the bloatware or pre-installed applications.
I remember in the mid 2000s that My whole group of friends wanted a Nokia because it had the snake game.. The amount of sales due to the fun snake game must be amazing.
Now the apps pre-installed on the mobile usually take up space that we want to use and we try to uninstall or deactivate them as soon as possible.

With the aim of improving the efficiency of phones and the user experience, Android 14 is capable of identifying and stopping the apps that we do not use to save resources. I tell you how Android 14 is going to end bloatware.
This Android 14 system starts with a scan of the mobile memory and understands which applications will be necessary for the mobile to function and which will not. The apps will be there but, in theory, they will not affect the performance of the mobile.
With all this in mind, it is likely to extend battery life and optimize overall device performance.
Despite efforts to offer tools and functionalities that combat these unhelpful apps, the effectiveness of this feature is still in the hands of the manufacturers.
The last word on bloatware lies with the manufacturers
Although Android 14 may provide tools to fight bloatware, The final responsibility lies with the manufacturing companies who decide what software to pre-install on their devices.
If manufacturers choose to keep certain applications out of anti-bloatware regulation, little will have changed in this matter.
In the coming months and With the arrival of Android 14 to more devices we will see how this anti-bloatware technology develops.
