The List of Bloatware Apps on Infinix Phones

If you've just bought a phone, including an Infinix one, you’ll notice that it comes with a bunch of pre-installed apps. These apps vary quite a bit and usually come from the phone’s system itself.

These pre-installed apps are called bloatware. Bloatware refers to apps that are already there when you first get the phone. They take up some space in the phone's storage.

Some of these apps can be removed, but many can’t be deleted or uninstalled at all. This is because certain apps are essential for the phone to work properly. If they were removed, it could cause problems or make the phone stop working as it should.

Even though they can be annoying at times, these pre-installed apps do serve a purpose. In fact, some of them are important enough that the phone needs them to run smoothly.

On Infinix phones, the bloatware comes from two main sources: Infinix Bloatware and XOS Bloatware. Infinix Bloatware is from the phone’s manufacturer, while XOS Bloatware comes from Infinix's own XOS system.

So, what are the pre-installed apps or bloatware on Infinix phones, and what do they do?
